Seward Park Audubon Center hosts several nature themed art exhibits in our downstairs classroom each year. The Center’s aim is to present the most meaningful programs to our audience, and we select artists based on high standards of creativity, quality and thematic relevance. We are currently conducting an open call to artists to submit their work for consideration for inclusion in our shows, scheduled up to a year in advance. Please note: we cannot accept walk-in submissions. We try to review submissions often and will respond via email when we are able.
If you’re interested in showing your nature-themed art at the Seward Park Audubon Center please email or call Annie Morton at 206-652-2444 or lmorton@audubon.org
Submission procedure: - E-mail a link to your website to lmorton@audubon.org. If you are sending jpeg images, please send 4-10 of your most recent work.
- Please include your artist resume and contact information.
- Please include an artist's statement addressing why your work is appropriate for Seward Park Audubon’s mission of connecting people with nature.

In collaboration with the Carkeek Park Advisory Council, Seattle Parks and Recreation, and the Associated Recreation Council, CoCA will present "Heaven and Earth 2," the second exhibition of temporary, outdoor sculptural installations in Carkeek Park, from June 26 – September 26, 2010.
As in 2009, the exhibition will focus on interpretations of nature in a world of dynamic change. Sculptural works can be constructed of any material and should leave “no trace” following removal. Interactive (kinetic) artworks are particularly welcome, as are any proposals that incorporate the process of change (weathering, erosion, over-growth, etc.) throughout the three-month display period. Deadline is May 14, 2010. Click here for more info.
