Food for Thought - October 1 - 31, 2024
Gresham Council Chambers
1331 NW Eastman Pkwy
M - F 11 AM - 4 PM
Show Description
What nourishes your mind? What sparks that moment of reflection or inspires you to see the world through a different lens? The "Food for Thought" art show invites artists to explore the ideas, symbols, and stories that feed our souls and imaginations.
Whether your work is a literal representation of food or a metaphorical journey into what sustains us, we want to see how you interpret this theme. Is it the comfort of a shared meal, the vibrant colors of fresh produce, or the complex layers of a thought-provoking concept?
We're looking for submissions across all media—painting, drawing, mixed media, photography, digital art, sculpture, jewelry, pottery, glass, and beyond. Let your creativity flow and surprise us with your unique take on "Food for Thought." This is your chance to captivate an audience, provoke conversation, and showcase your art in a dynamic and diverse exhibition.
What will you bring to the table?
Artist Reception Friday, October 4 5:30 PM
Live music & light refreshments
Artist Panel Discussion follows at 6:30 PM
