CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
CLICK HERE to register now!

Deadline: March 24, 2012

School 33 Art Center invites artists to submit artwork for consideration for our annual fundraiser exhibition, LOTTA ART, presented by M&T Bank. This annual lottery-style event raises funds for the support and growth of School 33, the renowned Baltimore arts institution that has championed the arts for over 30 years through exhibitions, studio space, and arts education.

All artwork will be available for preview on School 33’s website www.school33.org and at Silo Point beginning April 13, 2012.

We will be holding an exhibition preview event at Silo Point (1200 Steuart Street, Baltimore, MD 21230) on Friday, April 13th from 6-9pm. Guests will have the opportunity to view the artwork and purchase tickets to the Lotta Art event. This event is FREE and open to the public.

To show our appreciation for your generous contribution of artwork:

A selection committee will nominate three artists as “Best in Show”.  Each of these three artists will be awarded a solo exhibition at School 33 Art Center during the 2012-13 exhibition season.

Additionally, ALL selected artists for LOTTA ART will receive:

• Two free guest tickets for the April 21 fundraiser
• The opportunity to purchase a discounted “art ticket" for $100 (that is up to a $75 savings!)
• One year-long membership to School 33
• Discounts on exhibition applications and art classes
• The opportunity to apply for Members’ Gallery solo exhibitions
