“Who Are You When You Are Dreaming”; MoCA Seeks High School Artists to Submit their Creations
MoCA [Museum of Contemporary Art] Westport invites all high school students to submit works of art for a 2023 High School Student Art Exhibition on view at the Museum from January 13 - February 26, 2023.
Submissions should express the theme of Who Are You When You Are Dreaming, an open-ended concept created by the Teens at MoCA council. Guidelines are as follows:
• All high school students may submit one work, and all works will be accepted. Participation is not limited to a specific town or region.
• Art may be a drawing, painting, digital/graphic image, photograph, sculpture or video. • All two-dimensional work must be framed and ready to hang.
• Work may not exceed a maximum of 30 inches in either height or width.
• Submissions are due by midnight on Sunday, December 18, 2022.
“Our high school exhibition is always a highlight – the level of talent and creativity of students across the region is outstanding. Once again, we thank our high school teachers for their support in bringing this annual exhibition to fruition,” commented Ruth Mannes, MoCA Westport’s Executive Director.
The High School Student Art Exhibition will be on view concurrent with an exhibition featuring works from the Westport Public Arts Collections (WestPAC), in collaboration with the Westport Arts Advisory Committee (WAAC).
There is an entry fee of $10/entry. Funding to waive this fee is available; contact Liz Leggett, Director of Admissions at liz@mocawestport.org for details. Further information on artwork drop-off and pick-up, and the submission process, is available on mocawestport.org.
