Call to artists: Bainbridge in Bloom art wanted

Arts & Humanities Bainbridge is seeking original artwork for its Bainbridge in Bloom Garden Tour, and the winner’s work will serve as the official image of the 29th annual event in June 2017.

While the artwork will be used to promote the Garden Tour, submissions need not be limited to literal representations. AHB is looking for artwork inspired by outdoor spaces — gardens, flowers, plants, landscapes and seascapes. Photographs, figurative work, along with creativity in color and abstraction, are welcome.

The selected artist will receive a $500 cash prize and four tickets to the tour (a $140 value) as well as attribution on Arts & Humanities Bainbridge’s website, Bloom posters, flyers and other marketing materials. AHB retains the right to use portions or the entirety of the image for all current and future marketing purposes.

The submission deadline is 5 p.m. Friday, Dec. 30. For competition guidelines, visit www.ahbainbridge.org or email bloom@ahbainbridge.org.
