You're invited to submit your artwork to the Annual CCMoA Members Juried Exhibition, Why Cape Cod? 

 

Since the early days of the Provincetown art colony, Cape Cod has drawn artists from near and far to come and make art. Some followed influential teachers here such as Hawthorne and Hofmann; some came for the support and freedom fostered in the Cape Cod community of artists, and some came because of the light.

 

Today’s Cape Cod creative culture still exerts a huge influence on the artists who live and visit here.

 

How does Cape Cod influence your art-making? We want to know!

 

Is it the light?

Is it the sights you see- from landscapes to people to industries (ie fishing)?

Is it the inspiration you get from Provincetown, the oldest art colony in the country?

Is your process impacted by the Art Movements nurtured and developed here?

Or is your art influenced by your own lifestyle, state of mind and emotions that result from being here?

 

The Cape Cod Museum of Art is calling for artworks that show, in some way, the influence Cape Cod has on you! Art may be representational, abstract or non-objective. Please include no more than 100 words explaining how Cape Cod influenced this specific artwork. If provided, accepted artworks will have these short statements printed on the wall label next to your artwork.
