All artists residing in New Hampshire or Vermont are invited to submit work to be considered for inclusion in AVA Gallery and Art Center's 2019 Juried Summer Exhibition, which will be on display from July 12 through August 21, 2019. Artists are invited to consider the theme of "Messages for the Future", imagining their work is placed in a time capsule only to be revealed 200 years from now. Artists may submit up to two recent works (made during the past three years) that were not shown previously in one of AVA's Juried Exhibitions. Two-dimensional works are not to exceed 60 inches in any direction and sculpture is not to exceed 200 pounds. Artists may submit work through Slideroom by June 1, 2019.

Evaluation Criteria

Imagine that your artwork is placed in a time capsule only to be revealed 200 years from now. What messages will your work carry? Are the picturesque landscapes of today painting a cautionary tale? Do the materials you use tell a story of decay or preeminence? As the world around us changes, we are pushed to reexamine the power and place of art. We invite you to view your work through this lens and look forward to receiving your messages!
