The 16th annual Senior Art Exhibition will run from March 23 to April 14, 2011 at the Juanita K. Hammons Hall for the Performing Arts on the Missouri State University campus. This is a juried, fine art exhibition organized by the MSU Gerontology Program and co-sponsored by the National Art Shop and Studio 55, a fine arts group for individuals 55 and older. All visual artists, age 60 or older, are invited to submit work for this juried exhibit. Two original entries per person are allowed. All work must be completed within the last three years. Entries can be two- or three-dimensional and crafted of any medium or any combination of media. A $5.00 non-refundable donation is required for each piece entered for the exhibition. These fees will go to the Senior Art Exhibition Fund to help underwrite costs for future exhibitions. Submissions for the exhibit must be hand delivered to the Fuldner Lounge at the Juanita K. Hammons Hall between 8:30-10:00 on Tuesday, March 22, 2011. The exhibition may be viewed Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on the fourth and fifth floors of the Hall. Three jurors will evaluate the entries, and prizes will be awarded. For more information on this event, or to request a Call for Entries form, call Dr. Bradley Fisher in the MSU Gerontology Program at 836-5284.
