Call for art: Variations on a
Theme: Colors of Art and Poetry
The art resources team at the
Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Central Oregon’s Linus
Pauling Gallery invite your submissions for its upcoming exhibit: “Variations on a Theme:
Colors of Art and Poetry” that
will be on exhibit from April 12
to June 7.
Art and poetry mirror the
colors of our world.
Whether your palette contains pencils, paints or words,
its magic can speak to our souls.
Pair your art, in any medium,
with a corresponding poem
written by you or your favorite
poet.
Let the colors and the words
bring us delightfully into spring.
Artists can submit up to three
pieces of art in any medium,
each accompanied with the
poem (or portion of a poem)
that inspired your art piece.
The gallery can only accept
art that hangs on the wall.
Strong, attached wire is required
for our hanging system.
Please include with each
piece:
• digital image for each submission
• title
• media
• price
• dimensions
• the poem
Deadline for submissions is
March 10, 2026. Early submissions are appreciated.
Send in your art piece information to Grace Kennedy at
gracekennedy@hotmail.com.
Please indicate in the subject
line “Variations on a Theme.”
Items may be marked “not for
sale.” In determining your price,
please remember a donation to
UUFCO of 20% of sales will
be requested.
