The Calvary Church Art Committee announces a call for entries for artists from the congregation (for those who call Calvary home) to submit works of art for an exhibition at the Calvary Church Gallery from March 1 – June 15, 2025.
In our current sermon series on Ecclesiastes, we are learning about Solomon’s deconstruction period and God’s unchanging truth. The Art Committee requests artists submissions that relate to a time God worked in their life to deconstruct previously held beliefs about life, faith, or self, and how God reconstructed those beliefs to align with the Truth of His Word. Artists may also share a more general response to Ecclesiastes.
Artists of all levels from emerging to established, 14 years and older, are encouraged to submit up to three entries in digital form between January 7 – February 28, 2025 by electronic means at “info@calvarygr.org” mentioning Art Committee in the subject line.
Additional Details
Those artists selected for the exhibition at the church will be notified and will need to drop their work off at an arranged date and time, and pick it up following the exhibition. Specific instructions will be provided, and work must be ready for installation.
There are no restrictions on medium or content for submissions. Artists may submit images of painting, drawing, fiber art, sculpture, photography, printmaking, digital art, assemblage, and/or mixed media. A maximum of one work per artist will be selected for inclusion in the exhibition.
Each artist should submit the following:
- a high resolution jpeg image for each submission
- title, medium, date, and size for each submission
- an artist statement of 200 words or less
- a verse from the book of Ecclesiastes for reference

Purpose – The purpose of the Art Committee is to promote the visual arts as a tool to support worship and teaching at Calvary Church. We also want to encourage the engagement of visual art that complements our faith, with members of the church and surrounding community.
Mission – The Art Committee seeks to support God’s work here at Calvary Church with the management of its permanent art collection and by sponsoring temporary displays of visual art in the church. Through the support of the church’s Statement of Vision and these tasks, the committee will help to create and maintain an aesthetic environment that will enhance the spiritual and community activities that take place in our facility.
