Meadows offers $2,500 as top prize

By Carrie Sanger

 

The Meadows Museum, SMU, is accepting applications now through Jan. 31, 2019, from area artists for the Moss/Chumley North Texas Artist Award.

The award is given annually to an outstanding North Texas artist who has exhibited professionally for at least ten years and who has a proven track record as an active community advocate for the visual arts. The cash prize for the award is $2,500.

The award recipient will be invited to install work at the museum for approximately one month and will also be given the opportunity to host a gallery talk; both activities would occur in 2019, but neither are required of the award recipient.

The competition is accepting entries in the genres of drawing, painting, sculpture, assemblage, construction, video, photography, performance and installation.
