Love – Call for Entries

Description

Love
February 7–March 21, 2026

Apply by: January 8, 2026

Theme: AWD seeks artwork that centers around the positive, life-affirming qualities of loving and being loved. Artists might reflect on affection, care, belonging, harmony, gratitude, or shared presence. Romantic, familial, communal, or self-directed love may all be explored — with an emphasis on positive resonance.

This exhibition embraces a wide spectrum of artistic approaches and interpretations. Works may convey the feeling of love through color, form, movement, or material; through symbolic, conceptual, or narrative means; or through abstract, minimalist, or experimental expressions in any visual-art medium.

Juror: Chandler Simpson; owner, director, Chandler Gallery, Mill Valley CA
