The Southlake Arts Council is looking for home-grown talent to display for the annual Southlake Presents exhibit.
Applications for this year’s Southlake Presents art show and competition are now open!
The Southlake Arts Council, in collaboration with the APEX Arts League, is excited to bring this award-winning art show back to Southlake Town Hall. Southlake Presents captures the range of Southlake’s talent through this innovative public art exhibit that exclusively features art by Southlake residents.
Don’t wait until the last minute to apply! The competition gets harder every year and this is a great way to get public exposure for your work in a world-class community facility.
Applications are now open and close on Friday, March 22. The Southlake Arts Council will jury all submissions and select the finalists towards the end of March.
Selected work will be displayed in the Town Hall Lobby from May 17, to June 28. A public art reception will take place on May 19 at 5:00 PM.
Rules and Eligibility:
We can’t wait to see what the Southlake community creates!
Our Senior Activity Center members’ interests are diverse—that’s why our Senior Services Team works hard to provide programs across various disciplines.
Senior Center members find community with like-minded individuals through our clubs and special programs. There’s something for everyone at the Southlake Senior Activity Center, from Mah Jongg, Poker, and Bridge to knitting, flower arranging, and painting!
There’s no denying that our members love the arts. Our Intermediate and Advanced Art Classes are among our most popular programs! Our members are always ready to share their artistic talents with the 55 and better community. We love displaying their creations and admiring their visions. Whether someone has always dreamt of picking up a paintbrush or has years of prior art experience, our Art Classes consistently fill up! Nothing is more fun than creating art with friends.
For those who prefer to admire art rather than make it, mark your calendars for the Senior Center Art Show on Wednesday, September 7, at 10:30 AM. Members will showcase their artistic talent in a variety of media. You may even be able to pick up an original!
Our members have so much to offer, and we are thankful that they choose to share their talents with us!
Attention all local artists, visionaries, and creatives!
