Call for artists

We are calling for all regional artists who wish to show their work at Spiva.
This is a great opportunity for you to show your work to the residents of the area in
which you live and work.

Regional Focus Gallery

• Painting • Pottery • Sculpture • Weaving
• Photography • Mixed Media • Metal Smith • Printmaking

Spiva has a nice gallery space on the second floor of the art center, with recently installed track lighting. The gallery has approximately 850 square feet of floor space with 144 running feet of wall space.

To be considered you must reside in an approximate 100-mile radius of Spiva Center for the Arts. This call is open to all artists, regardless of membership in Spiva Center for the Arts. Work may be in any medium, but may not exceed 72" x 72" or 100 pounds.

Bring or send a copy of your portfolio, along with a brief bio and your artists' statement, for Spiva to examine and keep. (Photographs and handwritten statements are acceptable.) The Regional Focus Gallery Committee will select work that will complement the show in the Main Gallery downstairs. You may be asked to show alone, or with a group, but you will be contacted well in advance so that you will have time to prepare for a show of this size.

Your work will be insured while you exhibit at Spiva.

Pick up an application at Spiva -
222 West Third Street, Joplin, Mo.
