call to visual artists


August 13th VE will be hosting a benefit at the Empty Bottle (see post below). In addition to the four bands playing, we will also be having a print sale. I would like to invite any and all visual artists to donate a print (or more). If you'd like to participate, please contact me. You don't have to be in Chicago; I can give you a shipping address if need be.

Artwork does not have to be any specific size, although it would be best if you mounted it on some kind of board to eliminate damage. 5x7, 8x10, 11x17 or any variation there of is fine. Including a caption or website information is a good idea so people know who you are and how to find more of your work. I do ask that once you donate the print you completely relinquish it to VE; I will be assigning a very reasonable price to the artwork, as it is a fundraiser, and all unsold artwork will be saved for use of the non-profit.

Please forward this message to others who also may be interested, and make sure you all come to the event in August. Thanks!
