Call for Entries for YQQ's 2011 Art and Culture Program The Comox Valley Airport Commission and the Comox Valley Community Arts Council are seeking submissions for the 2011 Art and Culture Program at the Comox Valley Airport. The Comox Valley Airport (YQQ) has the unique perspective of providing the first point of entry for many Northern Vancouver Island tourists. Part of the airport's responsibility is to help form passengers' first perceptions of the Comox Valley and Northern Vancouver Island. This provides an ideal opportunity for YQQ to host an annual Art exhibition featuring the work of artists residing in the airport's catchment area (see residential requirements below). In this call for submission, the airport is seeking two and three dimensional art pieces that are representative of the artist's interpretation of this unique region of Northern Vancouver Island and/or the individual communities within this region. Art submissions may be in the form of paintings, original prints, photography, mixed media, textiles and/or sculpture. Open to all artists residing in the Comox Valley Airport's catchment area of Northern Vancouver Island. Boundaries include Parksville, Port Alberni and Ucluelet in the south; the Pacific Ocean to the West; Texada, Denman, Hornby, Quadra, Cortes, Alert Bay and Sointula to the east; and the Pacific Ocean to the North. Download the submission guidelines here or visit www.comoxvalleyarts.org for more information.
