Call for Art
Theme: Arts, Music, and Culture of West Tennessee
Deadline: October 25, 2024

The 33rd Annual Charity Gala will be Saturday, November 9, 2024, at the Carl Perkins Civic Center in downtown Jackson. This event serves as our largest fundraiser and proceeds support our grant programs, individual assistance to those in need, and other critical community initiatives.

Our concept for this year’s event, “Light Up the Night” is to focus on the arts, culture, and music of West Tennessee. One way we would like to elevate local creatives is by curating a gallery of different pieces of art from a variety of artists to highlight in our silent auction. We would love to include you in our artists’ collection and spotlight your work.

Artist Benefits

Help event guests learn about the arts in West Tennessee

To participate, an artist may donate a piece of original artwork to be sold in the silent auction. For the gallery of silent auction items, we would like all art to be inspired by the prompt – West Tennessee (arts, music, and culture of the region). Please contact Haley Fortune at haley@cfwtn.org to participate or learn more about the event.

 

All artists must submit their artwork by October 25, 2024, accompanied by the completed Artist Information Form.
