In celebration of the FIFA World Cup coming to Seattle, Graphite Arts Center “gets in the game” with a pop-up exhibit, The Beautiful Game, June 18-20. Players, refs, balls, nets, soccer moms and more! All the iconography that shouts “Futbal is life!” are welcome in this timely pop-up art exhibit. For The Beautiful Game Graphite is seeking unframed works on paper (drawings, paintings, prints, collage, photographs). Works should relate to the exhibit theme (i.e. soccer i.e. Futbal).

This is a group show. This pop-up exhibit will be shown in our art library space (not the gallery) with works displayed on art panels. Submissions will be reviewed and screened based on quality and adherence to instructions of the call. The overall makeup of the show, including the number of submissions, will also be considered.
