ZUFALL HEALTH SEEKS ART FROM COMMUNITY FOR FALL EXHIBIT

PEOPLE AND PACES THAT INSPIRE

Zufall Health, an organization of nonprofit community health centers, is seeking works of art by New Jersey amateur and professional artists for a new exhibit entitled “People and Places That Inspire.” Submissions will be accepted through October 2, 2015.

Artists are invited to submit original two-dimensional artwork including painting, drawing, photography or collage for the exhibit. The art will be displayed from October 20, 2015 to January 31, 2016 throughout the public and clinical spaces of the organization’s landmark headquarters building at 18 West Blackwell Street in Dover. The exhibit will officially debut on November 6 at a public reception.

Submissions may extend across a wide variety of subject matter pertaining to the theme. Artists are encouraged to broadly explore and interpret their subjects in representational or abstract approaches.

“We are hoping that our Art for Health program continues to expand with even greater participation from local amateur and professional artists,” said Eva Turbiner, president and chief executive officer. “We especially encourage new artists to take advantage of this opportunity as we showcase the creative talents and cultural diversity of out community.”

All art must be the artist’s original work and should not include political statements, commercial advertising, and subject matter not suited for minors or public space display.

Zufall Health reserves the right to refuse art that does not conform to these standards.

  • Artists must be over 18 years of age.
  • Artwork should be no larger than 36” x 48”.
  • Accepted art must remain on view for the entire exhibit.
  • Complete submission details and rules are available at www.zufallhealth.org.
  • All inquiries regarding the exhibit should be directed to the exhibit’s curator Nicole Okumu at nicole@therarebird.net.
  • Please do not contact Zufall Health for information about the exhibit.
