About the event
The Wake Forest Renaissance Centre, 405 S. Brooks St., Wake Forest, NC, is inviting artists of all ages, abilities, and mediums to submit an original work of art that answers the question, “What does America mean to you?” for its America 250 Art Exhibit. The submission deadline is Sunday, May 24.
Designed to give visual artists an opportunity to display and sell their work in a gallery setting, the exhibit will include 64 linear feet of hanging space and a medium-sized display cabinet to showcase 2D and 3D works for art.
Selected works of art will be displayed in the Renaissance Centre Arts Annex Monday, June 8, through Friday, July 17.
The Renaissance Centre will honor the artists and their works during a special reception on Friday, June 12, from 6-8 p.m. in the Renaissance Centre Arts Annex. The reception is free and open to the public, and works will be available for purchase through the artists. For more information, contact RC Arts Coordinator April Cannon at 919-435-9568.
