Plush toy artists needed!

You do not need to be a plush artist to apply to this show!
So long as your work deals with the themes “Fairy, Folk, and Fable” and plushies!

So a sweet painting of Black Beard (the pirate) stabbing through a teddy bear with his sword would totally be fair game!

We’re also accepting written work. All you have to do is write “fan-fiction” of sorts based off of the storyline we created! Yay!

Super major thanks to everyone who has been writing about the show! Your support is always appreciated! Major hugs to all of you!

And now I leave you with a promo image:

Aerosol Murals Program / Call to Muralists

Budget: $3,000 - $12,500 per mural

Deadline: Friday, March 21, 2008 at 7:00pm

The DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities (DCCAH) in collaboration with the Executive Office of the Mayor (EOM), and DC Department of Public Works (DPW) seek artists, artist teams and youth organizations to design, create and install aerosol murals or aerosol inspired murals in identified locations throughout the District of Columbia for a new project entitled Murals DC.

Murals DC has been created to replace illegal graffiti with artistic works, to revitalize sites within the community and to teach young people the art of aerosol painting. The goal of this initiative is to positively engage the District's youth by teaching proper art techniques, providing supplies, and a legal means to practice and perform their skill in a way that promotes respect for public and private property and community awareness. Site selection is based on areas of the District with high incidence of illegal graffiti as identified by the DPW, Mayor's Office of Community Relations and Services (MOCRS) and other agencies. Each mural will reflect character, culture and history of the neighborhood.
