Part of Worn Again 2010: A Cast-Off Couture Showcase


This exhibition invites artists to deconstruct used books (that would

typically be cast-off) and use the raw materials to start a new

chapter. We are looking for work that demonstrates a balance of craft,

imagination and innovation. Pieces selected for the show will

represent Team Worn Again's ongoing mission to take recycled

creativity to the next level.


* Works should be gallery ready

* Pieces will be selected by a jury:Team Worn Again and Art6 do not guarantee that your work will be presented in the show.

* All submissions will be accepted on June 26th from 11 am until 4 pm and should be delivered to Art6, 6 East Broad Street, Richmond Va.


Artists are invited to supply their own "well read" books: or

Space for 3 Dimensional work is limited so if possible please construct your submissions so they can be hung on the wall.

Submission fee $15 per piece payable to ART6
