CALL TO ARTISTS: MARCH 2021
Travelogues
The best way to see the world is undoubtedly to travel. But when travel isn’t possible, paintings of faraway cities and stunning landscapes can transport the mind. Have you seen a mountain so tall its peak disappeared beyond the clouds, a city street pulsing with color? Whether memories or dreams, share with us those moments you've been swept away by places far from home.
