Call for Entries: Women's Caucus for Art - New Hampshire Chapter "Juried Exhibition - FORCE OF NATURE: Exploring the Power of the Feminine"

The Women's Caucus for Art is seeking artists to submit to this call for entry. When women demonstrate their feminine power and energy in positive ways that command deep respect, they are often referred to as a "Force of Nature." Artwork should reflect this theme. Broadly interpreted, concepts might range from myth and legend to the personal, historical or political. Artwork considering Nature (as in Mother Nature and her natural forces), eco art and ecofeminism are also strongly encouraged. Up to three artworks. 2D, 3D, video, installation and performance are acceptable for submission. WCA Lifetime Achievement Award Winner Judith Brodsky is the Juror.
Submission Deadline: March 30, 2015
Exhibition Dates: July 6-August 14, 2015
