Penland School of Crafts Summer Studio Assistantships

12/28/2012

0 Comments

 
DEADLINE: FEBRUARY 15, 2013

http://penland.org/classes/summer/summer_assistantships.html

Studio assistants are students who assist instructors and fellow students and are responsible for maintaining the school’s standards for studio operation. Assistants receive housing and meals, and pay only the $50 nonrefundable processing fee. Assistants are selected based on their knowledge of a working studio. In addition to 25–40 hours of work each week, studio assistants are required to work from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM on the day before and the day after their session, and must make travel arrangements which will allow them to meet this requirement. If you cannot meet this requirement, please do not apply. Many instructors select their own assistants; check the list below to determine availability of positions before applying.

To apply, check the studio assistant box on the application form, and include a letter explaining your experience in the field and your interest in the class, along with a résume, two letters of recommendation, five printed images of your work (maximum size 8-1/2 x 11, no slides or CDs), and the $50 processing fee. Applications must be received no later than February 15, and must include letters of reference. Applicants will be notified by April 1.

International students note: because the U.S. government considers our studio assistant program to be work for hire, students who are not U.S. citizens may not receive studio assistantships unless they have a work permit.

Warrensburg Missouri Arts Commission Call for Entry: Etched Concrete Sidewalk Design

12/17/2012

0 Comments

 
LOCATION/CONTEXT

On behalf of a public art initiative for the city of Warrensburg, Missouri, the Warrensburg Arts Commission (WAC) seeks a two-dimensional design for a 10-foot diameter etched concrete circle that will be permanently installed in the sidewalk on Pine Street in historic downtown Warrensburg.

PROJECT INTENT/SITE

During the last ten years, almost one million dollars has been invested to improve the aesthetics and infrastructure in Warrensburg’s downtown district.  Improvements include the street surfaces; new 8’ wide concrete sidewalks with 2’ wide brick pavers on the outside edge of the sidewalks; and upgraded electrical, sewer, storm water, landscaping, signage, water, gas, cable, and phone services.

In the center of the Arts and Entertainment District of Pine Street in downtown Warrensburg, a 10-foot diameter concrete circle will be laid in the sidewalk on the north side of Pine Street.  A professional concrete etching company will reproduce the winning design on the circle.  Please see the architectural rendering of the site on our Facebook page.

THEME/STYLE

There is no pre-determined theme for artwork, but WAC suggests that the content reflect the vibrancy of downtown, the beauty of the region, and the energy of the Arts and Entertainment District. Whether your design is abstract or representational, we encourage you to create a design unaccompanied by a dog, bomber, or mule.  Please see a selection of example images on our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/groups/504736136206326) or at www.burgarts.com.

PROJECT FUNDS

An honorarium of $500 will be awarded for the chosen design.  WAC and the City of Warrensburg shall also have the option of making no selection.  In this event, a new selection process may be initiated or the project abandoned.  The award funds are made available through the WAC and the City of Warrensburg.

OWNERSHIP

The design for the circle becomes property of the City of Warrensburg. The artist shall retain copyright to the work and will grant WAC and the City of Warrensburg a license to display the work and create and distribute reproductions of the work, including digital and photographic images for archival and promotional purposes.

APPLICATION/SELECTION PROCESS

This is an open competition for non-professional and professional artists. There is no entry fee to submit your work.  A team of artists is welcome to apply, and multiple applications are allowed.  The Warrensburg Arts Commission and the City of Warrensburg selected design will be based on creativity, appropriateness, and practicality for implementation.

METHODS OF SUBMISSION

Email:  Submissions may be emailed with a maximum of 3 entries per artist.  Emailed submissions must be in JPEG format and less than 1.5 Megabytes each.  To submit entries via email, compose a message with the subject: “WAC Circle Entry.”  In the body of the email, type your name, mailing address, and telephone number.  Attach up to three images, with each attachment titled with your last name, first name and the entry number.  Example: “SmithLaura1.”
