Call for projects organizer
Description
The FL3TCH3R Exhibit and ETSU Reece Museum in Johnson City, Tennessee announces a call to artists for their annual Int'l FL3TCH3R Exhibit, October 2 - December 6, 2024. Greater than $2000 in awards. Juror: Meaghan Dee. Submissions will be accepted in the categories of audio/sound, ceramics, digital, fiber, glass, graphic design, jewelry/metals, mixed media (2D and 3D), painting, performance/installation (via video), photography, printmaking, book arts, sculpture, video/film, medical/health care and other.
A portion of the entry fees fund the Fletcher Hancock Dyer BFA Graphic Design Scholarship, benefiting ETSU Art and Design students. This scholarship honors the memory of Fletcher H. Dyer, a talented artist and former ETSU student. The exhibition was created to forward the legacy of former student, artist, graphic designer, and the Dyers’ son, and brother Fletcher H. Dyer, age 22, who was lost too soon in a motorcycle accident on November 5, 2009.
Fletcher H. Dyer envisioned art as a powerful medium for social change. His legacy inspires the exhibit’s mission to foster dialogue on critical social issues through artistic expression. Fletcher created works that addressed social and political issues that concerned him through visual means. He believed that everyone should have their own ideas about their environment and the world around them and a safe way to express whatever they are. Fletcher wrote, "I dream of making a difference in some way with my art, I might attempt to right political, social, and religious wrongs by showing the rest of society a glimpse of how I feel about serious issues in the world... Hopefully the awareness that I can help create will spark an interest in a movement that others will follow." Fletcher’s work embodied a purposeful, deliberate perspective and it was his personal endeavor to employ art as social commentary.
$40 for 3 entries + $10 each add'l. Deadline: August 31, 2024. More info (PDF). Contact: email or call 423-534-9827.
