The CAC is among 50 cultural institutions that have joined forces with the Los Angeles Opera to create a major city-wide cultural festival. This event will be the largest produced in the city since the 1984 Olympics. The month-long program (May 29 - June 26, 2010) will attract thousands of visitors from around the world who

The CAC is very pleased to be part of this historic event.
As our President Peter Adams explains "This exciting event
gives our artists a wonderful opportunity to challenge
themselves in new and different ways. Painters and sculptors
are invited to explore imaginative new approaches to creating
figurative, landscape and even still-life works of art."
This is your opportunity as an artist to challenge
yourself - and help the CAC gain international attention!
|
| SUBJECT: |
In celebration of the California Art Club's partnership with the Los Angeles Opera and Ring Festival LA, we invite you to submit paintings and sculptures representing Richard Wagner's epic four operas of Norse medieval folklore that make up the "Ring." Subjects can include forest scenes, the river Rhine, the Alps, visions of Valhalla (the Norse
idea of heaven), and scenes and characters from the operas. Use your imagination!
