Call for Artists – 2022 MAC Members’ Show

The Mobile Arts Council (MAC) will feature works by our Artist Members for the months of July and August 2022. Artwork can be 2D or 3D, as well as audio/video. Artists may submit up to two pieces of work that are no larger than 3’x6′ in area total (combined). Artists with more than one entry are subject to have a piece juried out, depending on the number of entries received. All submissions must be digitally entered online by 10 a.m., June 21st. Artwork drop off will take place on July 1st from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and July 2nd from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 6 South Joachim Street.

2D works must be equipped to hang with a wire, sawtooth hanger, etc. (something that is compatible with our hanging system).
