Arts and Health: Opportunity for artists/writers to exhibit on ‘Museum on the Move’ – deadline 19 January

Worcestershire and Warwickshire Museum on the Move mobile museum bus scheme is presently developing themes and ideas for ‘Just Art‘ the next touring exhibition.

The designer is interested in representing Arts and Health within the new exhibition and the learning and community engagement team at Warwickshire CC is keen to include art work which fits under this theme including outsider art. The Museum travels to communities and schools across the two counties

If you would be interested in lending 2D or 3D work or poetry you have produced or have worked on a community arts project which produced art-work that has an arts and health theme. And you feel that it would work well displayed permanently for a year of a bus. The artists / community will need to be willing to lend free of charge and would need to be available to tour the two counties from end of January 2012 to February 2013, robust (if 2D/3D) and family friendly.

Please send JPEGS of your work and include details:
     o  Title
     o  Short statement which explains the works relevance to the arts and
     o  health /outsider art theme
     o  Size /Dimensions
     o  Confirm that the work can be available from Jan 2012 to Feb 2013.

Closing date for submissions: Thursday 19 January 2012 12pm
