This is a reminder that the deadline for submitting entries into the Louisiana Arts and Artists' Guild's 42nd Annual River Road Show is growing near. All entries must be postmarked by September 16. The River Road Show is a national juried exhibition which gives artists from around the country an opportunity to compete and participate in the longest ongoing national competition of its kind in the Baton Rouge area. In the 2010 show, 137 artists entered 418 works of art in a variety of mediums. Almost half of those submitting work were from outside Louisiana. Nationally recognized instructor and artist, Pam Ingalls, will be judge and juror for this year’s show which will be held at the beautiful Louisiana State Archive Building in Baton Rouge, LA. The show will open and be available for the public to view from December 5, 2011 – January 27, 2012 with an awards ceremony and reception to be held on January 6, 2012. Entry fee is $40 for three entries and $5 for each additional entry, up to 10. This is a national juried competition with cash prizes of $3,000. All United States artists 18 years and older are invited to submit any original two-dimensional art except photography or digitally-created/enhanced works. The Prospectus and pictures of the 2010 show are available at www.laag-site.org/River_Road_Show.html. Direct questions to Gary Drinkwater at 225-485-8884 or laagbr@laag-site.org. |
