Call for Art: 3rd Annual Canyon Kaleidoscope Community Art Show

We are excited to announce the 3rd Annual Canyon Kaleidoscope Community Art Show! This is an open invitation to share your creativity, craft & art — no need to consider yourself a "professional artist" to participate. All are welcome!

Submission Details:

• You can submit 1 to 3 pieces
• Bring paintings, drawings, and mixed media. We also welcome weaving, knitting projects, and small sculptures that can fit on the built-in shelves or a pedestal.
• While we aim to include all submitted work, we can only guarantee space for one piece per participant. Additional pieces will be accepted as space allows.

What to Share:

• Finished pieces, process work, sketchbook drawings, experiments, or anything you're excited about sharing. This is a celebration of creativity in all its forms!
• Let this be an opportunity to showcase your unique perspective, whether you're a seasoned artist or exploring art for the first time.

Important Dates:

Monday, February 3

Framing Help Day // 3 to 5:30pm

• Join us at the Community Center for assistance with framing your pieces or choosing which ones to submit.

Monday, February 10

Bring Your Art Pieces // 3 to 3:30pm

• Drop off your artwork at the Community Center between 3:00 and 3:30pm.
• All pieces to be hung must have a wire attached.
• Fill out the Art Submission Form for each piece, including your name, title of the piece, whether it is for sale or not, and the sale price.
• We will begin hanging the show at 3:30pm —please let us know if you can assist with installation.

We hope you'll join us in making this year's Canyon Kaleidoscope a beautiful reflection of our creative community!
