Orinoco OPEN CALL (All Mediums are Welcomed)

(Deadline September 10th) Exhibition Opens September 20th 2024) Exhibition space - Queens Council of the Arts in Long Island City, Queens / OFRENDA FEST www.ofrendafest.com

Orinoco Art Call!

We're celebrating the fauna and flora of the Orinoco Delta River at the Amazon rainforest of Venezuela. We invite all artists and Indigenous communities to participate in our next art exhibit, focusing on the animal kingdom and ecosystem of the Amazon rainforest. Our aim is to spark dialogue and raise awareness about endangered species. Ofrenda Fest issues this open call to reconnect our relationship with all the ecosystems on the planet. By honoring the plant and animal kingdoms, we are reminded that we are all part of a living network connected to the planet.

The primary purpose of this call is to honor and acknowledge the essential role of both the plant and animal kingdoms in our lives. In doing so, we are reminded of the vital truth that we are not separate entities but integral parts of a vast, living network that is intrinsically connected to the planet. By re-establishing this connection, we hope to cultivate a greater appreciation for the natural world and promote actions that contribute to its preservation and restoration.

We want to know your message and vision for how you connect with this call and the Animal or Plant kindown of your choice and how your proposal “give back” to our planet? 

Here are some questions to help you choose your element:

  • What is your subject and why did you choose it?
  • Why do you feel connected to it?
  • What inspires you about it?
  • How can this subject support your life in new ways?
  • What are some ideas for protecting your subject?

Registration Fee: $20 (waived for Indigenous artists)
