Got Art?

Carlsbad City Library seeks local artists to showcase their work in 2013, applications due by Sept. 30.

From paintings and sculptures to photographs and quilts, Carlsbad City Library offers exhibit space at each of its three library locations. This proud tradition began more than 40 years ago and has celebrated the talent of hundreds of local artists while sharing the visual arts experience with visitors of all ages. The library is currently seeking exhibitors for 2013 and invites interested artists to submit an application for consideration.

Selected exhibits will run for six weeks as small-scale displays on walls or in cases at the Carlsbad City Library, Georgina Cole Library or Library Learning Center. To apply, download an art exhibit application or call 760-602-2400 x8149 for more information. Space is provided free of charge to local artists and artists may include works for sale.

To be considered for next year’s exhibit program, a completed art exhibit application must be submitted by Sept. 30, 2012, along with at least five photographs of artwork, a list of proposed artwork including titles and dimensions, and a brief biography including contact information. A committee will review applications and artists will be notified of selection by Nov. 15, 2012.
