Olympic chance for artists to take part in K2 exhibition

Art in Motion, Crawley in Motion

Published on 30/06/2012 11:00

Calling all budding artists!

Now in its third year, Art in Motion is an open competition for Crawley.

The winners’ entries will contribute to a new permanent art exhibition at K2 Crawley, celebrating sport and physical activity in the town.

Art in Motion is part of Crawley in Motion, the name for sporting, cultural and community projects taking place in the town inspired by the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

We want you to capture the excitement of competitive sport, or just the joy of being part of a team!

Amateur and professional artists of all ages are invited to submit artworks. The image can be inspired by any sporting competition; for example football, darts, running or a more informal physical activity like Zumba, Parkour or a kick-about in the park.

The subject just has to be participating in a physical activity which took place in Crawley in the year before the submission date.

You can submit any type of art; photography, drawings, painting, printmaking, textiles, computer-aided design, collage and montage – the choice is entirely up to you!

All we ask is that your submitted artwork is framed and ready for exhibition.

Last year, seven talented local artists had their work selected and it is now on public display in K2 Crawley.

So who knows, it could be your entry hanging on the wall this year!

The 2012 submission deadline is Thursday September 27.

For more information or to enter please visit www.crawley.gov.uk/inmotion or contact us at community.arts@crawley.gov.uk or 01293 438152 .
