Can you believe it’s time already to begin thinking about Rooms To Let: CLE! Proposals are due in March.
Rooms To Let: CLE 2019 is now accepting ARTIST PROPOSALS. Get your innovative interactive installation idea in by MARCH 15th.
How cool is this?!?!Hey artists AND community friends that want to help create a public artwork and learn a new skill…We have an opportunity for you!! LAND studio and Soulcraft CLE are collaborating on a #landformcle public art project with a community participation component. Eight artists will lead teams of public participants to create the ceiling of Forum, an artistic installation and open-air pavilion designed by #StudioWeave. The wooden ceiling will consist of multiple arches covered in artist-designed marquetry. Marquetry is the art and craft of applying paper thin pieces of wood to a structure to form decorative patterns and designs. No experience necessary- through free workshops at Soulcraft, artists and public participants will learn the art of marquetry. Soulcraft is hosting a free and open event Feb. 20th 6-9 pm at their woodshop (5401 Hamilton Ave, Cleveland) if you want to come learn more about the project! RSVP to eventbrite here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/join-us-for-one-of-clevelands-largest-publicly-created-art-projects-tickets-55776378650 Artists will be provided workshops on the medium and process of marquetry, access to the Soulcraft Woodshop for both project and personal use throughout the duration of the project, and paid a stipend of $2,000. Applications to the call for artists are due Monday, Feb. 25th! More information here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wpXUTVlUhR4ciRA75w4w41c1dEIdQNb6/view Community members will work in groups of 12 under the leadership of the eight lead artists and participate in 10 free workshops at Soulcraft. During the workshops, participants will work on drawing skills and learn marquetry. Each group will then produce panels that will be used to create Forum’s ceiling. Applications to be a public participant are due March 1st! More information here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LSKi9H_7xbD4nr6A5BZJmWaccshcAoeR/view This project would not be possible without the generous support of the Char and Chuck Fowler Family Foundation. Also, thanks to Cleveland Metroparks for being our project partner! More information about the project, call for artists, and call for public participants can be found here: https://www.soulcraftcle.org/forum-public-art-project/
