THE POLITICS OF FOOD ART COMPETITION
The Cape May Forum - Chautauqua at the Shore is calling for artists to enter The Politics of Food Art Competition! This call is being extended to artists in the state of New Jersey.
This event is the first annual art competition held by the Cape May Forum, to sponsor an exciting and iconic image to represent the fall program. Artwork juried into the competition will be sold at an auction to be held at the Cape May Forum Gala, “Evening of Chautauqua,” on June 4 at the Cape May Winery. The winning piece will be awarded a prize of $1000, and will be reproduced for the annual CMF poster, used in advertising, and in other venues.
A topical brief, an application and a FAQ Sheet are all attached to this email. An optional meeting will be held at the Cape May Forum offices (address below) on Wednesday, February 23 at 2:00 pm, to further explain the competition and its theme.
Applications are due back, with a fee of $10.00, by Friday, March 11. Artwork is due on Friday, May 6. Participants and winners will be announced on Friday, May 13. If your work is selected, it will be exhibited and sold at the Gala on June 4. At that time the winner will be announced, and a limited edition of the poster will be on sale.

The 29th Ellarslie Open
During the early years of the museum, the focus was on acquiring items to expand the decorative arts collection. Museum director Ben Whitmire (1978-1988) changed the focus to include temporary exhibitions of contemporary art with an emphasis on Trenton area artists. In 1982, he established the Ellarslie Open to encourage local artists to submit their work for judging and display. Since then, the Trenton City Museum has displayed the work of over five hundred local and regional artists, many selected on the basis of work they submitted to the Ellarslie Open. Today, the Ellarslie Open has become a significant exhibition in its own right, drawing on the work of professional artists from all over the tri-state region and beyond, while encouraging and recognizing emerging artists.
