The annual NURTUREart Benefit will be held at the Chelsea Art Museum, 556 West 22nd Street, on October 11, 2011. All artists are invited to submit work. In keeping with our organization's mission to support emerging artists, our benefit event provides an entry point for young artists to present their best work in a curated and prestigious public setting. We are proud to announce that Pamela Auchincloss, David Cohen, James Kalm, and Gregory Volk will serve as this year’s panel of distinguished jurors. These curators will review all the works submitted online and select pieces for exhibition and sale at the Benefit, with all proceeds going to fund essential NURTUREart programming. We sincerely appreciate everyone's generosity and support.
Artwork can be in any 2D or 3D medium, framed or unframed, maximum 20” in any direction including frame. All artworks must be able to be hung on a wall; sculptors may include a small shelf for display. Please upload a jpeg file—no larger than 150 KB and no more than 600 pixels in any direction—to our benefit submission page for the curators’ review. Only one submission per artist, please; multiple submissions from an artist will not be reviewed. Online submissions must be received by midnight, September 1, 2011. We will notify all artists by email in mid-September whether or not work has been selected.
