OPEN CALL FOR ARTISTS – Looking to commission six Kansas-based visual artists for a commemorative gift for the Kansas Association of Counties (KAC). Work within the theme of "Home Grown Beauty: Rediscovering Kansas" to help KAC celebrate its 50th anniversary. KCA is requesting one artist to represent each highway district. Representation can include, but is not limited to: home, work, school, etc. The piece can be any medium that can be gicleed. The composition can be any style. Subject matter is artist’s interpretation of one Kansas highway district, incorporating KAC’s 50th year anniversary. Size cannot exceed 11”x 17.” We are interested in emerging artists who haven’t yet shown. This is an excellent opportunity to have your work hung in a public space for many years. Pay and copyright contract will benefit artists. Original works due by Oct 20, 2025. Please send inquiries and/or proof of concept to Molly Nevius at nevius@kansascounties.org.
