Coming This Fall

By Robert Swartwood on July 6, 2011

From the Columbia Art League’s website:

Hint Fiction
August 23 – October 1, 2011
Opening Reception: Thursday, September 1, 2011
Artwork submission dates: Friday and Saturday, August 19 and 20, 2011

An anthology of 125 short stories, each told in 25 words or fewer, is the inspiration and muse for this juried show. Editor Robert Swartwood’s book Hint Fiction: An Anthology of Stories in 25 words or Fewer (published by W.W.Norton & Company, New York) is a compilation of stories, which each suggest a larger, more complex story.

Artists are invited to choose one of the works in the book, taking the story as the title and inspiration for their work. This is a juried show open to CAL members and non-members. Artists may submit two works for consideration. Entry fees (per person, not per work) are $15 for members and $25 for non-members.

Copies of the book are available to borrow from the Columbia Art League or for purchase from the University Bookstore or from www.amazon.com.

    Ah that’s very cool.  If you know how I might get my hands on one of those postcards, I’d be much obliged…

    Damn it…living in VA I always miss out on cool  stuff like this.
