Firefly at Somerville Open Studios 2022 Call for Art Saturday, April 30 • 12-10PM Spring is here and Firefly is once again participating in Somerville Open Studios! Do you have Firefly art gathering dust yearning to be seen again? Or a brand new concept that you can't wait to try out with a receptive audience? Firefly @ SOS is an excellent testing ground for your interactive/participatory art projects – whether your project is in progress, completed, or needs some fine tuning. Let’s share our Firefly community creations with the city of Somerville. Our event partner, SomerNova, will be creating an “art lane” in the alley between Dane Street and Market Basket. This event will be completely outdoor and run into the evening, and early sunset in the alley makes the location perfect for light art. ART GUIDELINES: - Everything will be considered – large or small. - Priority will be given to interactive and/or participatory pieces. - This year we will be completely outdoor, so bring your popups. - For those who make art and want to sell, this is the place to do it. SUPPORT FOR ARTISTS: - Need to update or tweak a piece? Firefly will provide funds for small repairs. - Local transportation to and from SOS will be provided, and stipends are available for longer distances. - Tent cover available by request. - We will have volunteers available on the day of the event. WHEN: Saturday, April 30 • 12-10PM (Rain Date: Sunday, May 1 • 12-6PM) WHERE: The Alley between Dane Street and the Market Basket which runs parallel to Somerville Ave. Please fill out this form to participate: https://forms.gle/C2vfht3Qyh5oy4zW6 If you have any questions or want to volunteer – email: FireflySOS2022@gmail.com
