SANCTUARY
This year we invite artists to submit work that contemplates the many meanings and resonances of SANCTUARY in Scripture, in Christian thought, and in our society today. It is written in Hebrews 9:24
For Christ did not enter a sanctuary made with human hands that was only a copy of the true one; he entered heaven itself, now to appear for us in God’s presence.
Eligibility
Open to artists working in all media. Entries must be your own original artwork. Artwork must be consistent to the show theme, although the link may be more obvious in your description than in the work itself. Each applicant may submit up to two works. Artwork must have sturdy wire across the back for hanging; limited space for three dimensional artwork is available. The St. Matthew Fine Arts Ministry reserves the right to reject work that is deemed inappropriate or which differs from the submitted image.

Entry Procedure
There is no entry fee nor does the Fine Arts Ministry keep a commission on any sales. Each artist may submit up to 2 works. Please submit your information by November 14, 2018 to allow for gallery signs to be made, but the artwork itself doesn't need to be complete at that time. Artwork will need to be at St. Matthew no later than 10am on Saturday, November 17. All applications must include a photo of the artwork, even if the artwork isn't complete yet.
The opening gala will be held on Saturday, November 17 from 6:30 - 9:00pm at St. Matthew Lutheran Church in Waco, TX. Please plan to join us for art, music, hors d'oeuvres, and fellowship. The artwork will hang throughout the Thanksgiving, Advent, and Christmas seasons.
