10x10: Call for Submissions

This exhibition calls for artworks in any style and of any subject, sized exactly 10”x10”. In order to adhere to the theme, we request that all artwork measure 10”x10” or as close to those dimensions as possible (pieces between 9.5” and 10.5” may be submitted so long as they are square). All pieces must also arrive ready to display, we’ve left the third dimension open so as to include both hanging and tabletop artworks, so if you have any questions or require assistance preparing your piece to be displayed please reach out to us before the deadline.

This group show is open to local artists of all ages and skill level and we encourage all members of the community to consider participating in the fun. Artists can submit up to 3 pieces into the show, please submit a unique form for each entry. We look forward to seeing all the various interpretations of our theme and celebrating this eventful milestone with our community.

We would also like to invite local artists to consider entering one of their pieces into our silent auction! All artwork entered into the auction will start at a minimum bid of $50, and when bidding ends the artist will split the proceeds with the Elkford Arts Council 50/50. All proceeds raised from this event will go towards a new floor for the Elkford Art Studio. Not only will this be a great opportunity to showcase local art and benefit the studio, but it will be THE place to be to acquire new art!

To register, please fill out the form below and submit by end of day April 20th, 2024. All artwork must be delivered to the Elkford Art Studio no later than Friday April 26th at 6 p.m. All participants will be emailed closer to the event date with detailed information regarding drop-off and pick-up dates and times.

Artwork will be displayed in Teck Hall alongside our 10th Anniversary Celebration on Saturday April 27th, immediately following our AGM (starting at approximately 7:45pm and ending at 10pm). The event will be open to the public and we hope to see many of you out in support of this momentous occation.

All unsold artwork must be picked up from the Elkford Art Studio on Sunday April 28th between 11am-2pm, please reach out ahead of time to make other arrangements if this does not work for you.
