AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

Non-Native New York officially opens a call for Brooklyn-based, immigrant artists!

Deadline: Friday May 14, 2010
Submission info & entry form: http://www.nonnativenewyork.com/submit.html
Entry fee: FREE

Non-Native New York is a curatorial project that celebrates the cultural and artistic contributions that immigrant artists are making which have largely been overlooked. This project will serve as a platform for under-represented artists to reach a broader audience, and to create a community conversation around the immigrant experience.

Artists from varied backgrounds and art experiences are invited to submit their work, including emerging artists, hobbyists with little or no formal art background, as well as artists with many years’ experience. Artists must have been born in a foreign country and live in Brooklyn.

Selected artists will be featured in an exhibition in Fall 2010, as well as an exhibition catalog, an evening of artists talks, and a project website.

Non-Native New York is organized and curated by Linn Edwards and Brian Bell, artists who have collaborated on art projects for over five years and lived in Brooklyn for a decade. They have been inspired by the diversity of cultures that gives Brooklyn its signature as a borough.

Please forward this call for entries to fellow artists!
