CALL TO ARTISTS! Please click on image above to submit your entry for the SURF'S UP exhibit. This show runs January 5-26, 2024, at The ARTS at Marks Garage. Deadline for entry is Saturday, December 23, 2023. Selected participants will be notified by Wednesday, December 27, 2023.
Surfing, the “sport of Kings,” has a rich history here in the Hawaiian Islands. Now enjoyed by anyone with the desire to get into the water with a board, this cultural practice has become a recreational activity performed all over the world! In Hawaii, the surf season generally lasts through the Winter months, and into the early Spring. This January, we are calling all local artists to showcase this sport we are so proud of. We are requiring that all works submitted have never previously been shown in the gallery at The ARTS at Marks Garage. You may submit up to four pieces for consideration. Each piece should not exceed 30 inches on the longest side. There will also be a "pop-up" room for prints, cards, studies, and other pieces for artists participating in the exhibit. Pop-up pieces will be available for purchase every day of the exhibit.
While there is no upfront submission fee to enter, a $75 participation fee will be charged upon acceptance in the show. This fee contributes to a small portion of the cost of hosting the month-long exhibit, including an opening and closing reception. This is an "evolving show," which means that works may be taken once sold. This provides the artists an opportunity to replace items for additional showings and sales. If you sell at least $500 of work, the participation fee will be returned at time of settlement. There is a 70% / 30% sales split. 30% of gross sales to be donated to The ARTS at Marks Garage to help fund and operate future programs.
In our twenty-year journey, The ARTS at Marks Garage, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, has become the most inclusive and diverse community arts incubator in Honolulu, providing opportunities and a safe space for every individual to grow in the arts. We cannot do this alone, and are grateful for the individuals and organizations who help us continue our mission to serve the community, revitalize the neighborhood, and support emerging local artists in all creative mediums.
