CALL TO ARTISTS

Seminole Cultural Arts Council tries to maintain a list of Call to Artists (of all varieties) focusing on Seminole County and central Florida.  If your organization would like your call to artists posted, please email us  complete details for review. 

​THE MAYFLOWER AT WINTER PARK

 The Mayflower at Winter Park is a premier retirement complex specializing in comprehensive continuing care and features independent living villas, single family homes, assisted living apartments, and a 60-bed health center.

The Seminole Cultural Arts Council (SCAC) sponsors an Art in Public Places program to explore connection through art. It features four cycles per year, each with a themed Call to Artists. Jpeg images of art are submitted by Florida artists via email to SCAC, then forwarded to an art review committee at Mayflower each quarter. Artworks are displayed in designated areas of The Mayflower Retirement Community for a period of approximately 10 weeks per exhibit.

 Theme: Count Your Blessings

 Call to Artists & submission of jpeg art:      Monday May 6 - Friday NOON, May 31

Archway Partners in collaboration with Orange County Arts & Cultural Affairs seeks one or more artists or artist team(s) to develop artwork for The Enclave by Archway Partners. The Enclave is being developed as a 104-unit, affordable housing development that will provide high quality residences to low and moderate-income families. This is a Green Building Certified Project, made of concrete block construction, three, 3-story, garden style buildings, built on 3.28 acres in Orange County, FL.
Affordable housing serves as a testament to the power of community-driven initiatives and the positive impact they can have on the lives of individuals and families. It showcases the resilience and determination of a community that comes together to create a better future for all its residents.
The proposed artwork should be fresh and reflective of the local community.
