call for art, studio tour JC, arthouse

This is a final special announcement for those artists within the New Jersey area.

We are pleased to invite you to participate in the annual JC Open Artists Studio Tour held at Art House Productions curated by Artmeme with artwork remaining on display for two weeks.

"Elements" is the theme and we are looking to combine an array of artists featuring original artworks in the form of: paintings (oil, water color, acrylic, etc.) drawings, mixed media, photography, graphic design, illustration, multimedia and demo art. Artists invite you to discover and view elements used such as: lines, shapes, form, space, texture, value and color. Bringing together various fundamentals creates a feeling of balance, understanding, peace and appreciation.

"Elements" is a two weeklong event beginning with a Sneak Peak Art Party on October 11th and a closing reception on October 25th. We will notify accepted artists on July 25th so submit NOW! Please note accepted artists will need to sign a release of liability form.

Thank you for submitting and we look forward to reviewing your artwork!

Have a great weekend.

Best,
Laura & Christine
