Call for Artists
A Matter of Time Exhibit
October 25, 2013 -May 31, 2014
http://www.nawcc.org/index.php/museum-exhibits/special-exhibits/matter-of-time-exhibit

Submissions due: August 30, 2013

The National Watch and Clock Museum issues a call for artists for the upcoming exhibition A Matter of Time. This exhibit invites artists to respond to the concept of timekeeping and how it is represented today. Artists are encouraged to visit the museum and www.museumoftime.org for more information. Special consideration will be given to those works that are functional timekeepers as well.

So how do you as an artist respond to the concept of timekeeping?

Rules for Entry

Eligibility

This exhibit will be located in the special exhibit gallery in the museum. The space is approximately 450 square feet. Twelve exhibit display cases (25” x 16”) are available for works needed to be protected under glass.

Deadline for submission: Received by Friday August 30, 2013. No exceptions. There is no entry fee.
