Call for entries: "Call of the Wild;" "Landscapes"

Wilson's CIAO Gallery sent a call for entries for its two new shows -- "Interpretations of the Landscape" and the second annual "Call of the Wild." They are scheduled prior to and during the Jackson Hole Fall Festival.

Both shows encourage open interpretations of the themes in any style, any medium. The aim of both exhibitions is a good representation of genres. "Interpretations" has a deadline of July 3 and "Call of the Wild" has a deadline of Aug. 7.

In more news from CIAO:

CIAO Gallery has obtained a location on the Town Square in Jackson. Our move in June will be in time for "The Printmaker’s Mode" show to be exhibited there. The location will ensure high exposure for the Gallery and featured artists and participation in many of the Jackson events as in the Jackson Hole Fall Festival. This festival draws national and international customers and artists. The festival goes from Sept. 10-20. Many events are scheduled. A link to the listing can be found at www.jacksonholechamber.com/fall_arts_festival/

During that time is the Palates & Palettes Gallery Walk (Sept 11). The exhibition "Call of the Wild" will open that night. Couloir Restaurant from the Jackson Hole Mt. Resort will be represented at the Gallery. Over the past years this has proved to be an outstanding gallery walk.

CIAO is still reviewing portfolios for art and fine art crafts. Please see the website for more details. Also, in November there will be a call for a JURIED CRAFT SHOW.
