International Organization on Arts and Disability (VSA) Now Accepting Submissions for June Washington Show

The International Organization on Arts and Disability (VSA) is accepting submissions for a show at the Terrace Gallery of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., June 3 - 30, 2011 called Shift: An International Juried Exhibition By Artists With Disabilities. Submission deadline is March 11, 2011.

Artists are invited to share a moment in time when a shift in their landscape occurred—it may be personal or professional, mental or physical, internal or external. Artists may submit a single work or a pair or series of works that illustrate this before-and-after transformation.

All artists are asked to consider the theme Shift as it relates to their submission, although a relationship to the theme does not have to be explicit or obvious in the work itself. However, the moment of change and its connection to the submitted work should be described in the application materials.

Artists may submit a single work or a pair or series of works that illustrate this before-and-after transformation. Selected work will be presented at the Terrace Gallery of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., June 3–30, 2011. Next week, affiliates will receive 10 copies of the printed call for entries for distribution. More information will be available here. Questions may be directed to Sonja Cendak, Visual Arts Manager, scendak@vsarts.org.
