Art Calls Growing From the Ruins

Opportunity Description
International Deadline: July 16, 2025 – Crumbled buildings, broken relationships, nature’s plight, acts of war, shattered lives may all seem hopeless until, from the ashes, new growth arises. Flower bulbs and seeds push forth new growth in spring. A natural disaster invites the kindness of strangers. The caterpillar appears dead until the butterfly appears. Scraps are recycled and used for new creations.
Whether natural, personal, or political, the experience of life falling into ruins will be experienced or observed by everyone at some time. How will your art represent this?
SUBMISSION – No Fees
Artists are invited to submit up to 5 entries for this juried exhibit by email to exhibits@stlukesmetuchen.org, or submit online.
Acceptance notification: Sun. July 20, 2025.
