Open Call for artwork
UNCENSORED (not having been banned or edited.)
Artists are encouraged to submit original works of art that may evoke strong emotion or challenge the viewer. Nature of subject matter may be controversial, empathetic, sensational, shocking, opinionated, considerate, taboo, humorous, political, satirical...but above all, thought provoking. Art should encourage viewers to consider ‘what is art’ and also the artistic freedom allowed in the U.S. to create without censorship.
