Slater Museum seeks entries for Connecticut Artists Juried Exhibition
The Slater Memorial Museum has issued a call for entries for the 74th annual Connecticut Artists Juried Exhibition, to be displayed in the Slater’s Converse Art Gallery Jan. 28-March 16.
The juror is Michelle Hargrave, deputy director at the New Britain Museum of American Art.
Up to $1,000 will be awarded in prizes from the Connecticut Artists Juried exhibition and, through a grant from the Katherine Forest Crafts Foundation, an award for excellence in fine crafts will be conferred. Honorable mentions may also be awarded.
Artists may download a prospectus at www.slatermuseum.org or call 860-4255563 to request a printed copy. Artists may pre-register at www.slatermuseum.org, but final submission is January 20 on site. Recognizing the impact of winter weather on past years, 2018 receiving will be one day only.
Selections are made from actual work. Submissions will be received in the Atrium (adjacent to the Slater) from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Jan. 20 (snow date is Jan. 21).
Artists will be notified by email following the jurying of submitted works. Entries not accepted may be collected 8:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m. Jan. 24-26 and 1-3:30 p.m. Jan. 27 and 28.
The Slater is part of the Norwich Free Academy, 108 Crescent St., Norwich. Call (860) 887-2506 for directions and general information.
