Sheldon Jackson Museum promotes solo Native art shows

Sheldon Jackson Museum in Sitka is soliciting for Alaska Native artists who would like to have a solo exhibition at the museum January through mid-April of 2021 and January through mid-April of 2022.

Those interested may complete and submit applications for review on CaFÉ, callforentry.org.

Applicants will be notified in late December on who was selected.

The exhibition will be held in a small gallery space at the museum.

Sheldon Jackson Museum was founded in 1888 to house an exceptional collection of Alaska Native ethnographic material.

The museum and its collection were purchased by the state of Alaska to inspire human thought and artistic endeavor to stimulate ethnographic research and to foster an awareness of, and appreciation for, the enriching qualities of a multi-cultural society.
