Student and community art sought for special exhibit during One Homecoming weekend

Artworks, such as this photograph by Stephen Vodhanel, PhD, are sought for a special art show in Loma Linda. The photograph is titled "Disney Concert Center, Los Angeles CA 2017."

Loma Linda Cultural Arts Association has issued a call for entries for artworks to hang during a special art exhibit timed to coincide with Loma Linda University Health’s One Homecoming Weekend. The exhibit, which opens Feb. 27 and runs through April 3, is jointly sponsored by the Student Expressions of Art Society (SEAS) and LLCAA. 

“The exhibit is designed to showcase the wide variety of visual art in our community,” says Lenore Roth, acting president of LLCAA. “We want to give visiting alumni something to enjoy during One Homecoming, and to allow student and community artists from the Inland Empire to showcase their talent,” Roth said.

Roth said artworks in any two-dimensional media are welcome, including paintings, drawings, photography, lithography and quilts. No pieces depicting nudity or violence will be accepted. 

Roth also said there are two different deadlines for artists to submit work for the show: students must bring their work to the Office of Student Affairs for approval on or before Tuesday, Feb. 20, and must bring the Student Affairs acceptance form with them to Drayson Center on Feb. 27. All other artists must bring their work directly to Drayson Center any time between 8:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. on Feb. 27. All pieces must be ready for hanging with a sturdy wire hanger.

“There are no prizes or awards for this show,” Roth added. “We just want to be able to share our gifts with our visitors and friends.”
