The Sustainable Washington Township Creative Team is pleased to announce the Summer 2023 exhibit at our outdoor gallery in Washington Lake Park. We are now accepting submissions from local and regional amateur and professional artists. Submitted artwork will be reviewed and selected for exhibit by a committee of artists and art advocates from the Washington Township community.
The Gallery in the Park is an outdoor installation located at the Amphitheater in Washington Lake Park and is a central venue in our Painting the Town Project. The exhibit will open in August 2023, and will remain in place through November, to be viewed by visitors to the largest municipal park in New Jersey. The Park is the site of community festivals, concerts, entertainment and recreation events, and is frequented by thousands of individuals seeking leisure enjoyment outdoors. Washington Lake Park is located at 626 Hurffville-Cross Keys Road, Sewell, NJ.
The theme for the exhibit is “The Human Element.” These words may elicit concepts of relationships between individuals or groups of people, benevolent or perhaps troublesome; the influence of people on processes or places, and/or resulting consequences; or human behavior or personality. We invite artists 18 years of age and older to submit images that depict some interpretation of the theme of the human element.
Selected images will be printed on weather-proof panels and hung along a paved walkway in the Amphitheater, visible to participants in Park events as well as casual strollers.* You may wish to visit our Facebook page here to see photos from a previous exhibit.
Images created in two-dimensional media are acceptable, including painting, drawing and photography. All images should be submitted as high-resolution digital files. File resolution must be sufficient to provide clear, undistorted images when they are enlarged and printed for display. Preference is for files in TIF (TIFF) format, having a density of 240 dpi, and with color space sRGB.
Please provide the following information in the registration form below:
· artist’s name and address
· a brief artist’s statement (not to exceed 50 words)
· contact and website/Facebook/Instagram information, if available
· title, medium and dimensions of original artwork, and
· sale price (or NFS)
Please submit image files for your entries (limit of 3 per artist) by July 8, 2023 to sustainable@twp.washington.nj.us (write “Gallery in the Park” in the subject line). If you have difficulty using the registration form, submit your entries and the information requested to sustainable@twp.washington.nj.us Artists will be notified of the committee’s decisions by July 24, 2023.
The exhibit is supported by the Township of Washington and Republic Bank.
* Please note that the Sustainable Washington Township Creative Team intends to display the gallery panels as a mobile gallery in the future. If we wish to exhibit an artist’s work in a different venue, we will notify the artist separately for consent.
