CALL FOR ENTRIES 

As a member of PSBA you are invited to participate in the 13th Annual Members' Exhibition 2024. This year’s suggested theme is Time Travel. As always, you are encouraged to think broadly in your interpretation. You’re free to travel backward or forwards or even sideways. This can be a personal journey to the past or, you can envision a whole world of the future. There are no limits to your imagination. 

Here are some ideas to get you started: 

• Visit a period from your past or imagine your future. 
• Side travel—what if you’d taken another path? 
• Stepping stones—follow the thread of your life from beginning to the present or beyond. 
• Travel to your favorite period in history or prehistory.
• Travel to the future. 
• Imagine a whole new world. 

This is the first year we are incorporating postcards into the exhibition. (Please consult the Artists' Book Prospectus for submission information regarding artists' books.) Postcards should follow the Time Travel theme.
