WELLFLEET, Mass-- The outer Cape Cod landscape has long served as muse for artists from around the world. In that spirit, Cape Cod National Seashore is now accepting applications for Perspectives: Seeing Cape Cod National Seashore Through Art, a series of month-long exhibitions of artists who find inspiration from the seashore’s resources and stories, and whose works reflect the natural beauty, cultural significance, and recreational aspects of Cape Cod.
The exhibitions will take place between April 2023 and December 2023 at the Salt Pond Visitor Center in Eastham.
“We are thrilled to bring this annual event back to seashore operations,” said acting Superintendent Leslie Reynolds. “This is a favorite event among staff and visitors, and we’re excited to see what works of art are submitted for this year’s collection.”
Artwork accepted for the series should reflect seashore resources and be acceptable for a diverse family audience. An attempt is made to exhibit various media over the course of the year, ranging from paintings and photographs, to mixed media and three-dimensional works.
Past exhibits have included historic images; landscape artwork developed by Nauset Regional High School art students; national seashore-inspired quilts; Wampanoag culture; and art and literature inspired by the beauty of the national seashore.
Interested artists should contact Brent Ellis at e-mail us. Artists will begin to be selected in March 2023.
