Show Title: ORANGE/PURPLE
Open to any medium, style, content. The theme is based on the color. We are looking for artwork that features ONE of the 2 colors (hmmmmm. or both) as the overall hue. Imagine a gallery room with all purple paintings…no, wait..all orange! What?!
Have fun with the play on colors! We are only looking for a couple more artists, so email us ASAP if you want to be considered.
This is not fully juried, but we do reserve the right to accept or deny any pieces we feel may not fit the show theme.
As always, PG rated – no sexual content or acts of violence will be considered. This will be broadcast on Facebook LIVE at 1pm. The gallery will be open for in-person walk-throughs as requested – private viewings & pop up evening and weekends through October.
Artist retains 100% of sales. We just ask you cover shipping to and fro or drop off. You are also in control of your sales. We will help by connecting you to the interested party.

It can be a piece you already have… or Create new statement or tribute art about social injustice. Maybe submit portraits of those who lost their lives with little to no justice or consequence. It does not have to be literal… Maybe an abstract emotion on how you perceive systemic inconsistencies in our police or legal system. Its up to you!
It’s free!
WE ARE LIMITED space wise so two submission max and we may only be able to display one… (we want to include as many different people as possible.)
THOSE SUBMITTING FROM OUTSIDE OF SPRINGFIELD, IL area… We would literally need art pieces to be at the gallery in Springfield during this mid/late -July show.
