The Weinberg Memorial Library is seeking submissions for our annual exhibit of Environmental Art.
The art show theme for 2024 is Creating Connections. Artists are encouraged to develop artwork around this year’s theme, sharing their connection with nature or a sustainable practice.Submissions are open to all and we encourage submissions by University of Scranton students, staff, faculty, and alumni.
Environmental Art promotes the natural beauty of our environment and the ideal practice of sustainable living through artworks of all types, including painting, photography, repurposed goods, sculpture, video and more.
The deadline for submissions is set for Wednesday, March 28th, 2024. All physical works of art can be dropped off at the Library Services Desk on the 1st floor of the Library. All artwork is returned after the art show ends.
The art show will be held in the Charles Kratz Scranton Heritage Room on the 5th floor of the Weinberg Memorial Library April 15-24, 2024. The exhibit opening event, An Artist Talk with Theresa O’Connor, will be held on April 15th at 5pm. More details to follow.
In addition to the physical exhibit, we are offering the option to exhibit virtually. The virtual exhibit will debut during Earth Week on April 15, 2024. If you are submitting digital artwork, you can submit your artwork at the following link:
