STEVENS POINT – The Riverfront Arts Center (RAC) is seeking submissions for a brand new art exhibit titled “The Blues Effect”.

This is an open medium exhibit but any artwork submitted needs to be at least 90% the color blue. The idea is to create a gallery space that immerses its viewers in the color blue in all different mediums and from all different artists.

2-D and 3-D works, including but not limited to paintings, drawings, photography, fiber, sculpture, pottery, collage, glasswork, metalwork and stonework of any style, all 90% the color blue may be submitted. All artwork will be curated by a committee for consideration into the exhibit.

Artists may submit up to two pieces for consideration. Artists must be 17 or older to submit. There is a $10 (non-refundable) submission fee for one submission, $15 for two submissions. Full requirements and submission forms are available at the RAC, or on our website at www.stevenspoint.com/rac.
