Christmas is more than gifts, family gatherings and a baby in a manger. The Mennonite Heritage Centre Gallery in Winnipeg is looking for artists from across Canada to submit slides or photos of their work dealing with themes of advent and incarnation. The season is filled with Christmas joy but it is also a season of awe, mystery, anticipation and reflection. We invite submissions from artists from across the country who have worked with or wish to work with these subjects in as specific or as broad strokes as they like. The artworks can be paintings, drawings, prints, collage or three dimensional.
Art can range from realism to abstraction.
There will be a jury. Slides or good photographs need to be at the Mennonite Heritage Centre Gallery by September 10. A jury will meet to select artworks by the end of September. Accepted artworks must be at the gallery by mid-October. Shipping of accepted art that needs to be sent to the gallery from outside the Winnipeg and surrounding area will be paid by the gallery.
