Dwarf Artists' Exhibit - NYC 2009 - First heads up!

April 25, 2008

It's almost a year to the LPA 2009 New York City Conference! The Dwarf

Artists' Coalition (DAC) will again be holding its creative and

celebrated annual exhibit - to be curated by Cachia and on-site

liason, Alysha Abrams. This is a good time to remind those excited

visual professional and aspiring artists who are thinking of

participating in the exhibit to start planning ahead of what you would

like to showcase [especially if you are working on a series]. I know

artists tend to procrastinate a lot (as I am one of them...!) so this

should give you ample amount of time to maybe get cracking on that

project you've been thinking of or finishing a painting in the basement!

Unfortunately, we will not be hosting an exhibit this year in Detroit

since and I will not be attending. Thus, we hope that NYC will

draw a lot of attention and work, not just from the U.S. but hopefully

garner from international LP artists as well.

Art work mediums include (but certainly not limited to) paintings,

illustrations, collages, graphic design, digital media, cartoons,

advertising, photography, murals/printmaking/litho, poetry/prose,

short stories and 3D art. We welcome professionals, recreationists and

students. My hope is to have a program booklet of the participating

artists' work as a keepsake next year.

The exhibit is week-long, will include an Artists' Reception and we

anticipate having an " Arts Day " with trip to the MET or MOMA (still in

the works). We are fortunate to have a great NYC conference team

including Petruzelli and are grateful for their resources.

Please email Cachia at amanda.cachia@... or myself

irene@..., should you have any questions.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Irene Yuan, DAC
