Testimonials
“I had such a wonderful experience at Superfine! NYC 2018. It was a well organized fair, and the crew was a delight to work with. The event and program line up were not only loads of fun, but a great way to bring interested people in. While sales are always a good thing, it was the new friendships, connections, and relationships that I made during the fair that really deemed it a complete success.”- Monica Delgado, Exhibiting Artist

Description
Jackson Pollock. Willem de Kooning. Norman Lewis. Mark Rothko. Helen Frankenthaler. All of these artists are inextricably linked to the American abstract movement of the 1950s, but what exactly does it mean for a work of art to be abstract? Even as we enter into 2021, nearly 70 years later, the definitional description of abstract art continues to mystify everyday art enthusiasts.
Art Scene West, a new contemporary gallery of West Coast art, is seeking works of art from West Coast artists for its online charity exhibition, Emotions Embodied: Abstractions from the West Coast. Recognizing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the creative arts, Art Scene West will donate a portion of all proceeds to The Center for Cultural Innovation (CCI), a California-based nonprofit organization that provides business training and grants to aspiring artists, arts administrators, artisans, and other creative entrepreneurs.
Submissions for this exhibition should be original works of abstract art that reflect at least some of the following characteristics: non-representational subject matter, visible brushwork, and large canvases.

The exhibition will run for ten weeks this winter and will include virtual events throughout the exhibition period.

Description
Connecting Perspectives is a collaborative, interdisciplinary series being produced and presented by the Social Distancing Festival and the Consulate General of Canada in New York. Drawing inspiration from the theme “Art Today,” 26 artists who identify as Black, Indigenous, or People of Colour (13 artists in Canada and 13 artists in the United States) will be selected, paired up and tasked with creating new, collaborative works of art for presentation on the Social Distancing Festival website.
Like so much else, the art world has been shaken by the COVID-19 pandemic. Artists and creatives, particularly artists who identify as Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour, have been severely impacted by the turbulence and uncertainty of the crisis.
We are looking for visual artists, choreographers, poets, composer/musicians, and spoken word artists who are enthusiastic about collaborating on new work that will be presented online. Each artist will receive a fee of $1000 USD, as well as $200 USD for expenses. These artists must have a minimum of 2 years professional experience, and be available to work on this project between February - end of April 2021.
Connecting Perspectives is inspired by the Social Distancing Festival’s Long Distance Art series, which saw artists from around the world coming together to work quickly and create new interdisciplinary work. Click here to check it out.
The deadline for submissions is January 22, 2021, or once we have reached 400 submissions in total. Given that we are seeking to include participants from across Canada and the United States, we may need to stop accepting applications from certain areas if we have received a large amount of submissions. We encourage artists to apply early to avoid disappointment! Follow us on social media or continue to check this website for updates.

Description
The Old Fire House Teen Center Teen Arts Committee (TAC) would like to host a free monthly arts and craft series that is open to all skill levels wherein teens can follow step by step instruction and learn fun techniques from a professional artist.
Artists are invited to submit proposals for a 1 hour online creative workshop for teens. Artists may submit for an individual workshop, multiple individual workshops (i.e. watercolor flowers, zentangles, zines etc.), or a series of workshops (i.e. watercolor flowers, watercolor landscapes, watercolor portraits etc.). We hope to include 15 minutes at the end of each session for an informal Q&A with the artist and teens. There will also be a 15 minute setup prior to the workshop to test the audio and visual connection. We also ask artists to check in for 15 minutes with the Teen Art Committee one month prior to their scheduled workshop. The total online time commitment is 1 hour and 45 minutes.
The goal is to help build community among creative teens, provide a free opportunity for young artists to meet and learn from professional artists, while supporting local artists through the stipend.
Selected artists will receive $125 total for leading an individual workshop, prep time, and materials. If selected for multiple workshops, the artist will receive $125 per workshop. The artist will provide their own materials and compile a supply checklist for participants to procure at least one week prior to the workshop. We ask artists to adapt their lessons to include lower cost supplies like using dry watercolor pallets or acrylic paints instead of oil paints and items already found around the home.

Many of us find sanctuary in the very act of creating art. For our upcoming online exhibit, we are looking for work that explores the notion of sanctuary, and perhaps even challenges the concept of what sanctuary can mean.
