WCA National (US) Call for Art by Women - Deadline 11/19

CALL FOR ART

"Hidden Cities" — WCA 2011 National Juried Exhibition

Venue: New Century Artists Gallery in Chelsea, NYC
Juror: Lisa Phillips, Director of the New Museum, NYC
Eligibility: Open to all women artists
Dates: February 1 to February 12, 2011

Deadline: November 19, 2010

Artists are invited to explore their idea of their Hidden City, real
or imagined, in an array of media. The theme may be broadly
interpreted from an activist, political or personal context.

No matter our place in society, we all have our Hidden City— a place
of refuge from gender, race, class and sexual exclusions, a place that
shapes the feminist viewpoint. Some cities, like wrapped boxes,
conceal unexpected gifts, others are riddles and lyrical abstractions.

Silver Lake Electrical Box Mural Project:: 9/30 proposal submissions

The Silver Lake Arts & Culture Committee is organizing an electrical box mural project in Silver Lake.
What is an electrical box, you say? Why, they are the large gray boxes on street corners that house lots of wires and make things work.
Monotonous, indeed, but when painted:
