Call for Artists for Mix the Medias! 

  • Mix the Medias exhibition features pop culture art inspired by comics, movies, and more.
  • This exhibition coincides with SOL CON the Brown, Black, and Indigenous Comics Expo that will take place at Glass Axis. SOL CON artists will be provided comic art for the walls but we need you to fill the rest of our gallery space! Your art can be inspired by comics or any pop culture entertainment. As a glass art facility we would prefer all work to contain some glass elements, however, we want to exhibit as much art for artists as possible during this time, so we are accepting all media entries. Artists receive 60% commission of the pieces sold. No fee to apply.
  • Deadline to enter is July 27, 2020 at midnight.
