About
Submit up to four pieces interpreting the theme 'Starry Summer Nights' (summer evenings, glowing skies, moonlit landscapes, memories, dreams, music, light, and movement) in any eligible medium for a members-only juried exhibition.
Overview
Starry Summer Nights celebrates the wonder, warmth, and imagination inspired by summer evenings. From glowing skies and moonlit landscapes to memories, dreams, music, and abstract expressions of light and movement, artists are invited to interpret the theme in their own unique way.
