“Defend our Mother”, Gina Cioffi Loud
(ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS, NJ) -- The Atlantic Highlands Arts Council has announced an open call for "Touch/Hold" - a juried photography exhibit. The Entry Deadline is December 23rd, 2022 at midnight.
As we mostly resume our post-Covid lives, the joy of personal contact becomes apparent. In addition, physical bonds can occur between humans, animals, trees and plants, inanimate objects or in combination. They're looking for images that express touching, holding, literally, figuratively and imaginatively.
The jurors for the exhibit are Bruce Cohn and Gina Cioffi Loud.
The exhibit will run from January 14, 2023 through February 11, 2022 with an Opening Reception on Saturday, January 14th (6:00pm-8:00pm). Artists will be notified on January 3, 2023.
Artists may submit up to 3 works of art upon payment of one submission fee: $25 (AHAC members) and $35 (non-members). Artists may download the prospectus here.
The Atlantic Highlands Arts Council (AHAC) is an all-volunteer organization comprised of a dedicated group of core volunteers who make up our Board of Directors, as well as many volunteers who gallery sit and offer their services on committees. Their mission is to strengthen community through the arts.
Formed in 2004, the Atlantic Highlands Arts Council (AHAC) transitioned from acting as “Mayor’s Council on the Arts” in 2006 to an incorporated 501(c)3 nonprofit organization starting in 2007. Over the years, new partnerships and creative programming has blossomed. AHAC presents rotating exhibitions in their main gallery and window displays; an ArtSHOP boutique for local arts, wares, and jewelry; adult art classes and workshops; free summer art camp for youth; free Art Kits for Kids to local elementary and middle schools; community events; and their annual international and award-winning FilmOneFest.
The gallery is located at 54 First Avenue in Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey.
