Hello,
Can digital art ( drawn via computer software) be submitted?
Hey Althea, Thanks for reaching out. All art mediums are welcomed for the MAC Members’ show! We just ask that artists ensure their work is equipped to hang with a wire, sawtooth hanger, etc. in order to be compatible with our hanging system. If you have any additional questions, email Sydney Cramer at scramer@mobilearts.org.
Awesome thank you!
