Gallery Six Thirteen Opening Show – Call for Artists! Deadline

Gallery Six Thirteen invites artists to submit 1-3 original works of art to our opening group exhibition entitled “REFUGE: A Celebration of International and Immigrant Art.”

We are looking for works of art reflective of the profound experiences of immigrants and/or travel overseas. The goal of this exhibit is to celebrate the enrichment our community gains from a connected world and to show support for our talented and inspiring immigrants and curious travelers. We are seeking artists whose international experiences have had a significant impact on them personally, professionally, socially, philosophically, and/or culturally.
​
Work submitted must be no larger than 4 feet by 3 feet with a preference for smaller works of art (24″ x 24″ or smaller) to allow us to include as many artists as possible.

The exhibition will open March 11, 2017 at Gallery Six Thirteen in Belmont Center at 68 Leonard St, Belmont, MA 02478 (gallery is currently under renovation).
