Make Art at Main Street Studios
Fitchburg, MA
| |
Do you get inspired by fellow artists? Would the company of other creatives motivate you to work on an idea or abandoned project?
Come to Main Street Studios on Tuesday evenings. We have plenty of work space for you to set up with your writing, painting, knitting, etc.
We will socialize for a half hour-ish and then have a quiet hour or two to do the work. If you are inclined to share at the end of the evening - or the end of the summer, you are welcome to do so. But that is not required.
Main Street Studios has coffee/tea/water and maybe a few snacks. There are also options for delivery if you want to order dinner.
The point of this evening is to have fun and employ a little gentle peer pressure to kick aside those creative blocks. If you have any questions, send us a message or leave a comment in the event. You can also email studios@fitchburgculturalalliance.org.

What's On Your Plate: Call for Art
Turners Falls, MA
| |
|
Deadline for submission: April 26, 2024 at 11:59 p.m.
What’s On Your Plate? asks artists to investigate the entanglement of food, time, commitment, and ecology. How is what we eat related to our personal history, and to the climate emergency? What should be on our plate as we think about our planet’s future? If we love the place where we live, what are we willing to do for it, and for each other?
Using Plates as a jumping off point, follow the question in any direction. Explore plates themselves as raw material or as a prompt for thinking about humorous or celebratory statements; pointed social commentary; the emotional, financial, and familial fodder of our lives, or a stage where we perform the joy of eating. All interpretations are welcome for submission to this community art exhibit.
Curated by Exploded View, a multi-disciplinary arts group, the exhibit will take place in May and June at the Great Falls Discovery Center in Turners Falls. A variety of related programming focusing on the Center’s year-long theme of food, farms, and factories is planned during the two months of the exhibit, including How to Make a Meadow, What’s Made in Present-Day Montague, a Downtown Foraging Walk, and an Edible Plants presentation. Opening and closing receptions will include creative performances by Exploded View.
Artists living within 60 miles of Montague are eligible. Wall art only for submission, please
Must be wired for display; no sawtooth hangers.100% of the sale price will go to the artists; neither Exploded View or the venue will handle sales—buyers will have to contact artists directly to purchase the work.

Montague, MA

The Town of Montague seeks an experienced muralist to paint a 3,000 square foot mural on a wall of the Shea Theater Arts Center, located at 71 Avenue A in Turners Falls, Massachusetts. The mural will function as a gateway, with the goal of instantly branding the village as a creative community and encouraging residents and visitors and enjoy local retail shops, restaurants, and the art scene.
The Town is working with Common Wealth Murals (CWM) to assist with this project. CWM is a mural management nonprofit that partners with professional muralists and communities to create public art which reflects the hopes, histories, and heroes of their neighborhoods.
A steering group is comprised of Montague residents, business owners, and representatives from the Shea Theater, RiverCulture and the Montague Planning Department has been formed to provide oversight of this work. The steering group will assist with preparing the Artist Call/RFP, muralist selection process, public outreach and community engagement, and the review and approval of the final design. The muralist selection criteria will focus on previous work and experience, commitment to creating public art that reflects the community where the art is located, and increasing the diversity of artistic representation in Turners Falls.
The selected muralist will be expected to attend community listening sessions to seek public input about the project’s design theme. Based on public input, the muralist will prepare a concept for the steering group’s review and approval. The mural is expected to be painted by September 2024.
The selected muralist will receive an artist fee of $15,000. All paint, supplies, equipment, transportation, room and board will be provided.
