In January, the Pratt Museum will be hosting an exciting new participatory exhibit – OUR STORIES, OUR PLACE: Stories of place from the community | We share our past experiences | A door to our path forward | We write our journey together | We paint our collective path.
To celebrate the Pratt Museum’s rich past and explore possibilities for the future, we’re inviting our community to share their stories of this place. We are inviting teachers and staff at local schools to select student art that reflects stories of this place. We are also inviting youth to submit their own work independently. These submissions may be specific to memories of the Pratt Museum, or to the Kachemak Bay region in general. Both art and written word will be accepted.
- Art submission should be between 4×6” and 20×18” and should include a backing material.
- Written submission should be 300 characters or less, handwritten or typed (word-processed submission may be displayed using a different font than the original document).
- Please deliver submissions to Whitney Harness or Keetra Dixon at the Pratt Museum by December 15th at 6pm. Contact Whitney at wharness@prattmuseum.org or Keetra at kdixon@prattmuseum.org for more information or with questions. Submissions will be available for pickup February 10, 2024.
Submissions will be on display in the OUR STORIES, OUR PLACE exhibit from January 5 to February 5 and will be featured in a First Friday Exhibition on February 2 from 4-7.
COPYRIGHT RELEASE: All submissions grant the Pratt Museum permission to use, publish, modify, distribute and display submitted work and personal information, including name, age, and school for exhibits, displays, advertising, educational and promotional materials for the OUR STORIES, OUR PLACE EXHIBIT at the discretion of the Pratt Museum.
