Calling All Ealing Artists
Get involved with The Story Continues @Home in Ealing
The Arts Council is supporting a year long Ealing project and local artists are being urged to get involved.
The ‘Story Continues@ Home in Ealing’ will run in partnership with Ealing Council, CCS Libraries and ARTtification.
Everyone is welcome to contribute to the programme of free events and activities which includes visual arts, literature, spoken word, creative writing and more.
Ealing is home to many different people from all over the world but they share, with the existing settled population, the common objective of creating a home for themselves and their families. The Story Continues will, therefore, have a major focus on the cultures of both recent migrants and those already living here, with themes of migration, settlement and home.
Rachel Pepper, ARTification Director said: '' We welcome the opportunity to celebrate Ealing’s communities creatively. The project aims to draw out local stories, artistic manifestations and cultural expression in an imaginative journey across Ealing.''
The Story continues @ Home Ealing’ project will build on 2015’s ‘The Story so Far’ with a programme of cultural events and activities, open to the public and held at host libraries and other venues across Ealing.
All artists wishing to submit work for the @ Home in Ealing Exhibition taking place between Saturday 10th – 24th June 2017. The theme of the exhibition is 'at Home'.The artwork can be created in any medium such as a painting, performance, video, audio, photography, sculpture etc. The deadline for submissions is Tuesday 6th June.
The project is also calling all residents in Ealing, to nominate their extraordinary, quirky and unique home to feature in a documentary film. You will need to select a particular room in your house/ flat. This is an exciting opportunity for local residents in Ealing to open their doors to the public, and allow camera’s to intimately film inside the homes of Ealing’s diverse community. The deadline for nominations is Tuesday 19th September.
