Juried exhibit set for April

The Pocono Arts Council, along with several local partners, will host a juried exhibition, "The Earth Speaks II," in April in the ARTSPACE Gallery.

While last year's exhibition focused on the climate crisis, this year's theme has been expanded to include the environmental crisis. Artists are asked to use their art as a vehicle for raising consciousness of this important issue.

The show is open to all, with awards available in a variety of mediums including 2-D, 3-D, photography and printmaking. Students are encouraged to enter.

Awards include a $500 Juror's Choice Award, $100 Curator Award, $100 2-D Award, $100 3-D Award, $100 Photography Award, $100 Printmaking Award and $100 ARTSPACE Student Award:

Deadline for submission is Jan. 31. For more information visit www.poconoarts.org or the PoconoArts Cultural Center at 570-476-4460 or info@poconoarts.org.
