All the kids are doing it these days...

... blogging that is - so you know, I figured we should get back on board.

They are all also submitting to the Richmond Illustrators Club 3rd Annual Juried Show! (deadline April 24th)

We are getting ready for our Third Annual Juried Show - hard to believe it's that time already.
It's going to open at Ghostprint Gallery again this year, which is really fantastic. The space is beautiful and Geraldine and Thea are incredibly helpful and generous, not to mention having created quite the reputation for having impeccable taste in art. The crowds last year were amazing and we have serious high hopes for this year.

Having only one juror will be a little different, but the fact that it's
Marshall Arisman tends to make up (in my mind) for any drawbacks that having only one juror could create.

We are also in the throes of getting a new website up -
www.richmondillustratorsclub.com - which will be lovely, as we will finally be able to have member galleries and a central location for all of the events, news and resources we would like to be pointing the illustration community towards.
Right now you can download the entry form for the 3rd annual juried show there, and pay for your entries through Paypal.

We are also simplifying this year by accepting all entries through email, either to the richmond.illustrators@gmail.com address, or to our new email - info@richmondillustratorsclub.com. Use "entries" in the subject line.


You can find all sorts of useful info about the last two shows below, incuding pictures from the opening, previous winners and a map with the location.


The deadline for this year is April 24th, which is really soon, and I know everyone (myself included) waits till the last few days to enter everything... but really, no extension this year - so enter now!

Looking forward to seeing all of the amazing entries this year and seeing which 35 Marshall picks!
