Call for Artists – Off the Page

 July 28th – August 29th

Not all art can be found on a page or even a canvas that hangs on a wall. Art can exist literally anywhere; it can be found in any shape, any size and any medium. The possibilities are endless.  An example of this pottery, from a lump of clay artists create amazing functional objects that we us for decoration and for our everyday as functional art.

If you look at fibre, be it natural or synthetic, the possibilities are again endless, from sewing, quilting, and embroidery and beyond. There are so many mediums that we do not always even imagine as art such as wood, jewelry, metal work and leather. Every medium has its own endless list of possible creations.

So, we invite you to get creative and break off the page! Lumby is waiting to see what you create.

Application Deadline July 26/2025
