"home sweet home"
regional juried show for san diego area artists

Picture
Theme: 
Ah, home... ...what does home mean to you? A house? A location? A city? A refuge? Any images that honor ‘home’ are eligible: a domestic still life, florals, furniture, interiors, fireplaces, bookshelves, the dog’s bed, the baby’s toys...you get the idea. Show us what you call “down home!"
​
​​
Eligible Art:
All 2-dimensional art welcome and any 3-dimensional artwork that fits on a pedestal. Photography, fabric, and journal pages are also welcomed if prepared for hanging. Enter your art submissions online digitally or drop off in-person.

Must be original art and the artist's own work. No reproductions/giclee prints (except for photography, digital art, or printmaking which utilizes limited edition prints due to the nature of the medium).
