. . OPEN CALL 2018 . . .

The Art of Meditation August 15 – October 3, 2018

Meditation, like art, allows us to create space between our negative, anxious thoughts and connect with our true selves. Creating art is about reaching a state of consciousness and breaking free from the constant debilitation chatter of the mind.

...Or is it??

For this Open Call, the Islip Art Museum asks artists to consider how art provides an escape into another realm of consciousness just as meditation provides a look into inner consciousness.

DEADLINE for all email submissions: MUST BE RECEIVED BY July 18, 2018
