Opening: May 1-30, 2021 4pm on Zoom
The Stamford Art Association (SAA) and The Connecticut Society of Portrait Artists (CSOPA) have partnered to create a special event paying tribute to mothers.
The online exhibition, Artistic Celebration of Motherhood, is a multi-media event featuring original art ranging from classic portraiture to abstract expressionism. Each of the sponsors will exhibit a display of their artwork with a link to the other organization's artwork. This is a multimedia juried exhibit with cash prizes.
SAA is asking artists to submit 1-5 pieces of artwork on the theme of Motherhood. If you are entering with a painting, drawing or sculpture of classic representational portraits, you must enter through the CSOPA website, here.
All other artwork should be entered through SAA. There will be a Zoom opening on May 1 at 4:00 pm. A select number of pieces will be shown in a pop-up show in downtown Stamford: if you wish to be considered for the pop-up your work must not exceed 36x24 framed and must be wired for hanging. No size restrictions for the virtual show.
