The Milford Arts Council is calling all MAC member artists for a non-juried, open-themed exhibit of two-dimensional media (painting, photography, collage) which will be held from Feb. 6 through March 13. This exhibit, formerly known as the Member/Resident Exhibit, is offered only to MAC members this year as a way to show appreciation.
All skill levels are welcome, and up to three pieces will be accepted. Art must not exceed 24 inches by 36 inches in measurements or 25 pounds in weight. Work may be marked for sale or not for sale.
Artists who would like to become a MAC member may do so for $35 through the MAC website at milfordarts.org/join-us-2. Membership provides discounts and other benefits.
The council will receive art at the MAC building at 40 Railroad Ave. S. in Milford on Jan. 17 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. and on Jan. 18 from 10 a.m. to noon. Work must be wired for hanging, with no exceptions.
The submission fee is $20 for the first piece and $5 for each additional piece. A reception will be held on Thursday, Feb. 6 from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.
The exhibit will be judged by the MAC staff for Best Use of Color, Best Photography, Best Black and White, Most Creative, and Best in Show. MAC patrons will select a special People’s Choice Award. Winners will have the honor of seeing their artwork hung on the MAC walls during the Milford Photo Expo, which runs through May 2020.
