Calls for Entry >>

Sept 2012 to May 2013

Submission deadline May 30, 2012.

The Comox Valley Airport has the unique perspective of providing the first point of entry for many Northern Vancouver Island tourists. Part of the airport's responsibility is to help form our passengers' first perceptions of the Comox Valley and Northern Vancouver Island. This provides an ideal opportunity for YQQ to host an annual Art exhibition featuring the work of artists residing in the airport's catchment area (see residential requirements below). In this call for submission, the airport is seeking two and three dimensional art pieces that are representative of the unique region of Northern Vancouver Island and/or the individual communities within this region. Art submissions may be in the form of paintings, original prints, photography, mixed media, textiles and/or sculpture.

Open to all artists residing in the Comox Valley Airport's catchment area of Northern Vancouver Island. Boundaries include Parksville, Port Alberni and Ucluelet in the south; the Pacific Ocean to the West; Texada, Denman, Hornby, Quadra, Cortes, Alert Bay and Sointula to the east; and the Pacific Ocean to the North.

Artists are promoted at the airport and on the airport's website. Each artist is featured in a press release with the launch of the exhibition. And the artists are invited to attend the launch event publicly marking the opening of the exhibition.
