Night Sky Art Show at Alameda Free Library

 

Inspired by our showing of “The City Dark,” a PBS/POV documentary, the Alameda Free Library’s Libraries Outside program is soliciting entries for a community art project.

 

Participants should create (in an art form of their choice) a piece for display in the library, using your most impactful night sky experience as inspiration. Entries should be smaller than 2 foot square and should be brought to the Alameda Free Library, at 1550 Oak Street, by March 1, 2016 for inclusion in the art installation.

 

All ages and art forms are welcome. If your art form doesn’t easily display (example: dance), please try to make a representation of it for the installation.

 

A reception will be held on April 6th at 6:30 pm to celebrate the artists.
