VSA Wisconsin, the state organization on arts and disability, is accepting submissions for the annual Call for Art. Wisconsin residents with disabilities, ages 5 and above, are eligible and may submit up to two works. The deadline for submissions is Feb. 15, 2017. Guidelines and a submission form can be found at http://vsawis.org/exhibitions_sales/call_for_art.

Submissions will be reviewed by a jury of arts professionals who looked for creativity, originality and craftsmanship. The top 10 selections will be added to Creative Power: VSA Wisconsin’s Traveling Exhibition. Work from all artists who make a submission to the 2017 Call for Art will be on view from April 17 through May 6 at the VSA Wisconsin Gallery, 1709 Aberg Ave.
