Summertime.\u00a0 Sun.\u00a0 Sea.<\/p>\n

Cultural Alliance of Long Beach<\/a> is celebrating them all–and if you’re based in Long Beach,\u00a0 they encourage you to submit your art, for an opportunity to join them!\"CALB<\/a>Their exhibition, “Sunrises, Sunsets and Sails”, curated by Victor Ladd, opens Friday, June 5th at Shoreline Village Art Gallery. \u00a0 They’ve issued a call for local artists in the media of drawing, painting, sculpture, fiber, ceramics, prints, mixed media, books, photography, digital art, wood, and installation art.\u00a0 Work relating to the theme of “Sunrises, Sunsets and Sails” will be considered.\"harbor<\/a>Submitting artists must have a yearly CALB membership (for insurance purposes).\u00a0 Membership information is available here<\/a>, and discounts are available for students and senior citizens.\u00a0 Artists must submit an artist statement with their work, and submissions must be presented on Saturday and Sunday, May 30th and 31st, from 3 to 7 pm at their Shoreline Gallery space.\u00a0 (They’re located just above Shenanigans in Shoreline Village; the address is 423 C and D Shoreline Village Drive, in Long Beach.)<\/p>\n

Each submitting artist gets the opportunity to include two works in the show, and works submitted may be either for sale, or “NFS”–not for sale, simply for display.\u00a0 (CALB does have insurance coverage for their exhibits.)\u00a0 Students from the local colleges are welcome to submit work.\"shoreline1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Artists whose work is accepted will be expected to attend CALB at the Shore’s opening reception, which takes place June 5th from 5 to 8 pm, and to be available to sell their work (unless, of course, you’ve designated it as “NFS”–not for sale, simply for everyone to enjoy!).\u00a0 While artists keep 100% of their proceeds, CALB requests a 10% donation back.<\/p>\n

Now–what are the requirements?\u00a0 Besides being a local artist and CALB member in good standing, think “excellence” and “professionalism”.\u00a0 CALB emails that all prints and paper art must be framed, and that framing must be exhibition quality.\u00a0 You don’t have to be as talented a framer as Victor Ladd, who customizes his frames to enhance his work…\"dimensions<\/a>(Wow.)…but, frames must be in good condition.\u00a0 CALB tells us that mats must be clean and smoothly cut, and works on canvas are required to be framed or have finished edges.\u00a0 All artwork must be properly wired and ready to hang.\u00a0 And no saw-tooth hangers!\u00a0 (Ever.)<\/p>\n

For gallery exhibitions, each piece must be labeled on the back with the artist’s name, name of the piece, and price if it’s for sale.\"sunset3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

NOW–important dates and times to keep in mind.\u00a0 The “Sunrises, Sunsets and Sails” exhibition runs from Friday, June 5th through Saturday, June 27th.\u00a0 Unsold artwork must be picked up on either Saturday, June 27th or Sunday, June 28th, between 3 and 8 pm.\u00a0 If left after those dates, pieces incur a $5.00 daily fee for every business day they’re onsite, starting one week after the pickup date.\u00a0 Thirty days after that, the work becomes property of CALB, and is theirs to sell.\u00a0 And while we love what they do, and encourage you to support CALB, that may be more of a contribution than would be comfortable, at this point.<\/p>\n

Any questions about “Sunrises, Sunsets and Sails” or exhibiting?\u00a0 You can e-mail Cultural Alliance Long Beach <\/a>at CALBarts@gmail.com, or give them a call at (818) 448-5312.<\/p>\n

CALB’s “Sunrises, Sunsets and Sails” exhibition opens Friday, June 5th, with an opening reception from 5 to 8 pm, and runs through Saturday, June 27th, when there will be a closing exhibition from 5 to 8 pm.\u00a0 Artwork may be picked up during the closing exhibition.<\/em><\/p>\n
