Artwork sought for public display
The Elora Sculpture Project is seeking submissions from artists wishing to take part in year four of its Sculpture for Outdoor Sites program.
In downtown Elora, the project has created a number of sculpture exhibition areas that allow the public to enjoy these works while strolling though the village. The exhibited sculptures will be available for sale; essentially turning the village core into an outdoor gallery. Proceeds from all sales go directly to the artist.
For 2014 the project will expand from 10 to 14 sculptures and each will be installed from next May to November.
Also new for 2014 is a category for smaller works; up to 12 inches deep by 24 inches high, so a monumental scale is not needed to take part.
Past works showed a wide range of subject matter and materials including wood, stainless steel, clay, glass, forged steel, bronze, found objects and mixed media. Full entry details and requirements are available at www.elora.info. Entries must be received by Feb. 1, 2014.
The Elora Sculpture Project is a civic initiative, funded and managed by the Elora BIA with the cooperation of the Township of Centre Wellington, and with additional financial support from Noecker Travel Ltd.
