BOOM Charlotte Issues a Call to Create
DEADLINE: June 19 at 11:59PM

Artists have the ability to bring the swirling emotions we are all feeling into reality. Through their paintbrushes, spray cans, pencils, clay, and cameras, they can comment on the state of the world like no other. Their work can challenge. It can show different perspectives. It can give a community a voice. And, most importantly, it can inspire.

BOOM Charlotte is partnering with BLKMRKTCLT, The Roll Up CLT, and Charlotte Is Creative to issue a call for submission from any artist/photographer/dancer/musician/creative who wants to use their talents to address the current state of affairs in our city and our country.

Submissions are due Juneteenth — Friday, June 19 at 11:59PM. Your work doesn’t need to be completed by that time, a well thought out idea will do for now. This will all culminate with a virtual event on Saturday, July 11 from 4:00-7:00PM showcasing selected artists’ work. For more information and to submit your work, click here.
