Call for Submissions

Hello Yellow

DEADLINE for Hello Yellow –  JANUARY 8, 11:59 pm. 

In the depths of our Canadian winter, we welcome all Artist Network members to submit art to our January COLOUR show, “Hello Yellow.”

Did you know that yellow is the brightest colour the human eye can see? This call for 2D or 3D art will lift our spirits with a warm, cheerful energy that yellow can evoke on the snowy grey days ahead. Yellow is the colour of friendliness, fun, optimism, and communication. It can even kick-start our brains with originality, creativity, and enthusiasm!

Let’s begin 2023 with the colour yellow, shining a light on personal empowerment, turning our dreams into reality, and the promise of a positive future. How will you interpret YELLOW?

NOTE: This show is FREE to submit for members who have paid for 2023 Artists’ Network membership by the January 8, 2023 deadline! This is a juried show and not all submissions may be accepted into the show.
