Time to Register


Hello Everyone:

We were all sixteen once. And what do sixteen-year-olds like to do?

Ok, there are a lot of things that sixteen-year-olds like to do, many of which were not invented when some of us were sixteen, but hanging out at the mall is timeless.

It's time to unleash your inner mallrat. That's right, it's

SWEET SIXTEEN
Untitled's Spring Show 2007
Friday, March 16th
6pm - 10pm
At the Bellevue Center Mall


Come with us as we go where no Untitled show has gone before, westward, to the mall, where we'll transform a former Disney store into Nashville's hottest art venue for one night only.

Registration is open now, and all middle-Tennessee artists at all levels and in all media are invited to participate. Here is the link to the SWEET SIXTEEN registration survey:
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=750483375136

If you'd like to participate in this show, follow that link and enter your information before midnight on Sunday, March 11th. Interested artists are strongly encouraged to attend our regular Wednesday night meeting at 7:30 PM at Kazu in Cummins Station this week or next.

The rules are the same as always:

- $15 fee is due (postmarked) one week before the show, March 9th. Send it to PO BOX 40232, Nashville, TN 37204

- one piece per artist. No diptychs, triptychs or multiples unless they are physically attached to each other so that they can be hung by one nail and sell as one piece. No exceptions.

- Work is due on Wednesday, March 14th between 6 and 7:30 pm at the venue. Late work cannot be accepted.

If you need to change your submitted artwork (or price, or title or volunteer preferences, name, address, etc.) just return to the survey before the deadline and enter the new information. You may NOT change your information after March 11.

Untitled is just a bunch of artists making shows happen together. Please be kind to each other by helping out as much as you can and meeting every deadline and following every rule.
