WOVEN: The Juneteenth Juried Art Exhibition 2024

 

Once again, the Artists’ Guild of Spartanburg seeks to highlight the work of outstanding BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) artists in the southeastern region through their upcoming Juneteenth juried art exhibition, WOVEN.

 

Artists working in all mediums are invited to apply. Woven is an exhibition highlighting works of creatives such as quilters, weavers, and visual artists from the southeast region. This exhibition seeks to celebrate and commemorate the visual storytelling and traditions in conversation with the African Diaspora. Through this presentation of visual storytelling and craft-based works, we seek to broaden intergenerational narratives of BIPOC experiences and creative practices.

 

Accepted works will be exhibited in the Artists’ Guild gallery within the Chapman Cultural Center in Spartanburg, SC from June 5th through June 26th. This first-floor gallery space receives high foot traffic and is open to the public Tuesday through Saturday. Our 2024 Juror is Rosetta Nesbitt of Spartanburg, SC.

 

The submission deadline is Friday, May 24th by 11 pm.
