Work Requirements:

  • Theme of this month is all about the otherworldly, creepy and fantastic: so any original work 2-D, 3-D and Photographic work that contains surrealism, fantasy or tasteful horror. How do you envision what comes out of Wonderland?

  • Submitted work must have been made in the last 5 years. Work previously submitted in a TRA Show is fine so long as it has not won an award from TRA.

  • Any work based on photographic references: Photos must be taken by you and not by someone else on the internet, magazine or another artist (yes, even with permission).

  • Please email images of your work for promotion on social media and our newsletter (and any questions you may have) to us at info@tamparegionalartists.com. Be sure to include the show name in your subject line.
