Call for Art: The World of Pollination

Beetles, bees, butterflies, bats, birds, flies, wasps, wind, water and even people can all be agents of the continuation of life on our planet by bringing the life force of one being to that of another, so that the seed of a new one can grow.  Somewhere between 75% and 95% of all flowering plants on the earth need help with pollination.  Another way to say this is that one out of every three bites of food we eat is there because of the work of pollinators.  ArtHaus and the Northeast Iowa Pollinator Partners invite you to celebrate this in Pollinate, a community art exhibition of visual art that honors and hopes to inspire conversation about pollination and our environment.

Any age or skill level is invited to submit wall-hangible visual art for inclusion in this community exhibit, to be on display at ArtHaus from Friday, June 3 through Thursday, July 21, 2016. Works must be delivered May 20-27; there is no fee to submit works. For complete qualifications and entry details, download an entry form here.

This community exhibit is sponsored by Seed Savers Exchange and the Oneota Community Food Cooperative.
