Still life with roses, fields of hay, owls in a tree and humans being human— these are just a few from thousands of possibilities for artistic exploration in MFA’s themed Flora or Fauna exhibition. Any original fine art 2-D and 3-D work depicting the broad range of animal and plant life are the possibilities for juror consideration. Entries are open to all artists residing in the United States, Puerto Rico, Canada and Mexico. This MFA organized exhibition will display the selected works at the Calvert Marine Museum (CMM) from April 1 through May 15, 2021. Click this icon to view and print the downloadable prospectus.
