Windows on Main Street 2010 |
Call For Artists: Windows on Main 2010 - Deadline July 1
Windows on Main Street is a unique and exciting project entering it's sixth year in Beacon, NY. Participants create site-specific works of art as a means to engage the community, residences, and businesses through a month-long exhibition displayed in store windows located along our mile-long Main Street. This year's Windows on Main Street opens August 14th and will run through September 11th 2010. This collaborative and multidisciplinary project is intended to stimulate interaction between artists, residents, and commercial vendors to explore how art can provide cultural and social understanding, be a catalyst for economic improvement in communities, and strengthen the relationship between residents and artists. The opening of this event will be part of Beacon's August 2010 Second Saturday celebration, a monthly celebration of the arts in which galleries and shops are open from noon until 9:00PM for openings, performances and other events.
