Call for Submissions for Mercier Bridge Art Contest

02/05/2020

The Mohawk Council of Kahnawà:ke (MCK) is pleased to announce a call for submissions for artwork to be displayed along the Federal section of the Mercier Bridge.

The project is being sponsored by The Jacques Cartier and Champlain Bridges Incorporated as a follow-up to the similar and very successful initiative that took place in 2017. The MCK was a partner in that project and will also assist in this new contest.

The theme for the 2020 contest is Kahnawà:ke’s Shared Vision Statement, which can be viewed online at www.kahnawake.com/visioning .

Interested artists should submit photos of their works to artcontest@mck.ca or drop off the actual artwork at the MCK main reception desk no later than Friday, March 27th at 4pm. Submissions must be hand-drawn, sketched or painted, with the use of vivid colors. Digital Art created from digital technology as part of the creative process may also be accepted. It is important to note that submissions outside of those media (such as sculptures, beadwork, etc.) will not be accepted.
