A Shout Out to Alumni

Call for Art!


Wareham High School Alumni are invited to participate in an exhibit to be shown during the 6th Annual Arts Fair on Thursday, May 1st, 2014.  Work will be shown at the high school from 6:00-8:30pm on May 1, 2014 and may be exhibited for an extended period of time, at another location, to be determined.

The mission, should you choose to accept it, would be to create a visual piece in any media that answers the question/comment: “My life at this moment….” or “What does your life look like, now?”

We would like to have alumni of Wareham High School share with their hometown community, how they have grown since leaving Wareham High School; essentially, how have your lives evolved?  There is no right or wrong answer.  Perhaps we could call our exhibit: EVOLUTION.  We understand that life is in a constant flux.  We simply would like you to capture a snapshot of your life, now.

Visual pieces should start at 8”x10” and may get bigger from there.  Works may also be 3-dimensional.  Pieces may be created using any media (that includes photography or other digital media) and should be accompanied by an artist statement (no more than a paragraph). The artwork should be exhibit ready (matted, at least) and may be dropped off at Wareham High School by Wednesday, April 30, 2014.  Works must also be dropped off by 2:30 on 4/30/2014 and labeled: ATTN: Amy Dion.

Participants will be responsible to pick up their own work when the complete exhibit is done.  Name, phone number, and email address should also be clearly labeled on the back of the work.  Participants will be notified when their work is ready to pick up.

In order to set aside an appropriate amount of exhibit space, participants will need to confirm their inclusion in this event by notifying Amy Dion at adion@wareham.k12.ma.us by Wednesday, March 12, 2014.
