The City of Auburn Arts Commission is seeking artists working in two-dimensional media to exhibit their work at three City of Auburn gallery spaces in 2009. The deadline to be considered is Oct. 13 and artists of all mediums are encouraged to apply.

A selection panel of seven individuals including art commission members, community members and artists will review the artwork and select imaginative pairings for display amongst the three city managed gallery spaces. City Hall Gallery, Cheryl Sallee Gallery Wall at the Auburn Senior. Activity Center, and the Auburn Avenue Theater all feature dedicated spaces for the display of two-dimensional artwork.

“It’s a great opportunity, especially for emerging artists, to have a high-traffic area in which my artwork can be seen and sold,” said Brian Rasmussen an artist whose work is currently featured in the City Hall Gallery.

Depending upon the gallery location, artist exhibitions are on view for one to three months at a time.

Full submission guidelines are available at www.auburnwa.gov/art or call Parks, Arts & Rec during regular business hours, Monday-Friday, at 253-931-3043.
