This call is open to members and volunteers of Walterdale Theatre who create 2-dimensional art work suitable for exhibition in the theatre lobby during the From Cradle to Stage New Play Festival, May 20-25, 2025.

Artists can submit up to 3 (JPEG) images for consideration. An artist may also include a short artist statement and appropriate label information (Artist’s Name, Title, Media, size (Height X Width), and sale price if applicable). A commission of 30% will be charged on sales as a donation to the theatre.

Works need to be 2D works, no larger that 36” in either direction. Finished works must be properly framed and have D-ring attachments on the back to accommodate the gallery hanging system.

Your work will be curated by the program coordinators (Ross Bradley and the Alberta Society of Artists team members), and you will be notified of the results. Depending on the volume of responses the number of works per artist may vary.
