CALL FOR ENTRY
5th Annual CVAG Wearable Art Show

Date TBA
At the Native Sons Hall

What is Wearable Art?
Wearable Art is original, one of a kind, often whimsical, innovative or theatrical adornment for the human body. Artists & designers will use any materials, such as wood, metal, leather, candy, pop cans, paper, or carpet to build a costume of artistic endeavor. Hairstyles, make-up, shoes & accessories are styled to complete the look.

What is the Wearable Art Show?
The Wearable Art Show is an “art couture fashion show” and performance/exhibition of creative explorations of body adornment. Artists create a wearable work and their chosen performer will wear the art and “perform” the artwork for 2 minutes to music, also selected by the participants. The entries will be presented in a theatrical performance, with the final night’s show including judging, an awards ceremony and cocktail reception.  Judges will award prizes; the audience will also vote on their favourite piece.

Who should enter?
YOU! If you are an artist, designer, costumer or creative body adorner!

How do I enter?
Complete the Entry Forms and submit your concept drawings by the deadline of May 17, 2013. If you have already completed the actual garments, you can send photos of them as your submission.

Does the actual wearable art have to be done by the entry deadline?
No, the first deadline is for the submission of your drawings and sketches.

Deadline TBA
