MOREcolor 2016 Call for Artists

The Oklahomans for Equality (OkEq) gallery at the Dennis R Neill Equality center in Tulsa, Oklahoma is now accepting proposals for the 2016 Exhibition Calendar. Each chosen exhibit will be on display for approximately 30 days. 

The OkEq gallery encourages emerging artists and fresh challenging work in all media, including installation works. Proposals should include a paragraph or two about your vision for an exhibit, as well as five (5) good quality jpg images which represent your current work. All proposals must be submitted online to alliejensen@cox.net with the subject heading “OkEq gallery proposal” (not to OkEq). 

Proposals incorporating the work of two artists or a small group are also acceptable. 

“While we continue to have a 'no repeat' policy, previous artists may serve as the curator for a group showing,” say organizers. “This group showing must have at least three additional people who have not shown in the Gallery before. The returning artist (curator) may have work on exhibit in proportion to the other artists represented in the exhibit.” 

Please inform the MOREcolor organization if your idea for an exhibit will require months to prepare or if you have calendar restrictions. Organizers would also like to know if you could be ready to go quickly, as those early months are sometimes hard to fill. 

OkEq hosts an opening night reception for the artist(s) on the first Thursday of the month. There will be a 30% commission on work sold. Artists will be asked to provide a "door prize" which will be awarded by a drawing at close of opening night. Deadline for submissions is November 15, 2015. Notifications will be sent out by December 1, 2015. 

Please send proposals to alliejensen@cox.net with the subject heading “OkEq gallery proposal.”  

In addition to the MOREcolor Juried Fine Art Exhibition, Oklahomans for Equality (OkEq) presents a rear-round schedule of solo shows featuring local and national artists. Artists are selected each year in the Fall for the upcoming year's shows. We want to encourage artists who have not had a show in the OkEq Gallery to send a proposal to the OkEq Gallery Committee. Whether or not you have shown work in MOREcolor, you are eligible as long as you have not had a personal show in the permanent gallery.
