CALL FOR ARTISTS
The HSFCA is launching a call on CaFE for the Hawaii State Art Museum (HiSAM) Sculpture Garden. Through this call, the HSFCA intends to establish a qualified pool of individual professional artists for consideration for various 2D and 3D sites in the HiSAM Sculpture Garden.
The HSFCA urges Hawaii visual artists to register and apply to the call on CaFE (www.callforentry.org), a website developed by the Western States Arts Federation (WESTAF) to facilitate calls for artists and artwork. The CaFE registration is free, secure and offers access to visual arts opportunities nationwide.
The website can be found at www.callforentry.org and provides information about CaFE, answers to FAQ’s, tech tips, image prep and a questions forum.
