2008 will see an opportunity for ALL genres of artist.

I am organising and hosting 10 months of arts events in our busy community centre [link] and on the internet, between March and December 2008. This will fit in and around existing local activities and bookings.

Part of the event will be an on-line gallery which will be projected onto a large screen. The gallery will be interactive and the viewing public will have the opportunity to interact with the artists via comments boxes. Artists will all be invited to submit your artwork to the show. All artwork will be categorised and should be accompanied by a description, and a short biography.

Because the gallery will be on-line, I will be encouraging other galleries to display and interact with the display.

Any suggestions or ideas would be most welcome. Visit the News section on DeviantArt for more details: [link] and add it to your favourites so that everyone gets to see it.

Starting later this week, I'll be creating a submissions and information page for the exhibition. I am in the process of creating the graphics for the site and a preview will be posted soon.

Hi Hanna,

Sorry it has taken a while to get back to you. I will work on something in the morning as
a) My son is just back from University, and
b) I have been Sound Technician at a play and I have only just got home.

Thank you so much for this.

Simon
