Call FOR SUBMISSIONS
On location in NYC there will be an exhibit of artwork by women in the USNE Area on the theme of covenant women following Jesus and spreading their influence for good. Women wishing to share their artwork at the conference will need to bring and take home their pieces. The artwork will be displayed on easels outside the hall where the conference will take place. Artwork should be able to stand on an easel (not necessary to be framed, but must be able to stiffly rest on a standard easel). There will be room for 100 pieces of art. If you wish to bring a piece of art to display, click on the registration link and follow the prompts. Women do not need to attend the Conference to have artwork on display, but they will need to arrange with someone to bring and take home their artwork.
