Call for Murals Artists to Ontario Canada

OPEN CALL FOR MURAL ARTISTS

The Group of Seven Outdoor Gallery is seeking up to 10 artists to participate in the 2007 Group of Seven Mural Festival. The Festival will be held in Historic Downtown Huntsville, from June 23rd to July 7th, and is being managed by the Downtown Huntsville BIA. Experienced mural artists are encouraged to apply. It is anticipated that a 20% of the successful applicants will be local Muskoka mural artists.

The Group of Seven Outdoor Gallery is a series of mural reproductions of masterpieces by the Group of Seven, a group of well known Canadian artists. Artists will be required to reproduce one Group of Seven painting that has been pre-selected by the Downtown Huntsville BIA. The artist will need to pay attention to the fact that we need as exact a replication of the original work as possible.
