Contribute your art inspired by the 5,000-year history of SHADOW Lake Nature Preserve.
Attend an Artist Day Workshop on June 17th from 12—4 pm, for inspiration and to learn about the unique history of this wild space. Bring you own art supplies to create work on site, or simply witness the creative energy at play!
Selected works will be displayed for sale, in SHADOW’s Richter Education Center from July 1st– September 15th. Works will be selected based on family appropriate nature of the content and telling of SHADOW’s story. Artists submitting work to be hung must submit no later that June 28th.
50% of proceeds from the sale go directly to the artists, and the remainder will act as a tax-deductible donation to these two dynamic nonprofit organizations. Unsold works will be returned to their artists after September 15th.
Artists should be prepared to provide a small biographical display alongside their work.
Happy Independence Day! We hope your celebrations are joyous and nature filled! SHADOW Lake Nature Preserve's trails, the Richter Education Center, and office will be closed in observance of the holiday. We will reopen on Friday.
