Call for Entries for Kalamazoo Valley's Eighth Annual Alumni+ Art Show

KALAMAZOO, Mich., Dec. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- It isn't too early to start thinking about entering Kalamazoo Valley's Eighth Annual Alumni+ Art Show. The show opens on Friday, April 5, 2019 at 5:30 p.m. and submissions are accepted until March 4, 2019.

This juried art show enables Kalamazoo Valley alumni to showcase their works. There is no artist entry fee. Each year this show is held at Kalamazoo Valley's Center for New Media in conjunction with Art Hop.

Works submitted will be considered for awards which will be presented to artists on the night of the show. Show judges are area professionals who come from a variety of disciplines and whose expertise enables them to deliver expert, but impartial, determinations. Previous judges have been impressed by the variety and quality of work.

An alumni artist can enter the show if he or she: 1) has successfully completed at least one class at Kalamazoo Valley, and 2) is not currently enrolled in any class at the time of the show (winter 2019); and 3) is not a Kalamazoo Valley employee.

Participants need not to have been an art student. Previous show entrants have come from a variety of backgrounds including law enforcement, accounting, and medical coding. Alumni artists do not have to reside in the Kalamazoo area to enter or win. Past shows have accepted entries from Kalamazoo Valley alumni artists residing in Rhode Island, Arizona, and Wyoming.

Art can be turned in to Cindy Parks at the CNM reception desk. The submission deadline is Monday, March 4, 2019. For more information contact Ashley Jones, [email protected] or 269.373.7881.
