Art Drop Off - Fair Housing Month Art Contest

  • Arts So Wonderful Gallery - University Mall 155 Dorset Street South Burlington, VT, 05403 United States (map)

What does a Thriving, Inclusive Community look like?

What does home mean to you?

What are your favorite places in your community?

Are there resources you wish your community had?

What makes your community inclusive and why is that important?

Show us!

To celebrate April Fair Housing Month, Arts So Wonderful and the Fair Housing Project of CVOEO invite you to submit work that answers the following question, “What makes a thriving, inclusive community?” The Fair Housing Act enshrined into law important protections against discrimination and harassment in housing. It is intended to increase housing opportunity and choice and dismantle historical patterns of segregation and exclusion. Artists are invited to consider the important ways the Fair Housing Act continues to shape our communities through the medium and visual language of your choice.

This exhibition is open to all ages, with cash prizes for youth and adults.
