The San Benito County Arts Council is excited to announce a call for artists for their upcoming fall exhibition titled ‘Soul Searching: An Exploration of Portrait Art.’ This exhibition aims to showcase the diverse and dynamic portrait works by local and regional artists, across all mediums.
Soul Searching invites artists to delve into the depths of portrait art, exploring the myriad ways in which faces and figures can convey stories, emotions, and identities. Whether through painting, sculpture, photography, mixed media, or any other form of artistic expression, the Arts Council seeks works that reflect the diversity of our creative communities.
The exhibition will be up for viewing Sept. 27th-Nov. 1st at the Art Depot, 35 5th Street, located in the historic train depot in downtown Hollister. An Opening Celebration is scheduled for Friday, October 11th, 6:30-8:30pm.
The call for artists is open to all local and regional artists working in any medium. Artists of all backgrounds and experience levels are encouraged to apply. The deadline to apply is Friday, Aug. 30th, 5pm. Submissions will be reviewed by the Arts Council’s Curating Committee. Selected artists will be notified by Sept. 6th.
Artists are invited to submit their works electronically via an online submission form HERE.
