OSPIRG seeks

art show submissions
OSPIRG is calling for
submissions for its Save the Willamette art show.
OSPIRG Campus Organizer Kit Douglass said the upcoming show is a spinoff of the organization’s “Students for a Clean Willamette” campaign.
“The idea is to generate a lot more awareness that the Willamette
(River) is dirty, disgusting and polluted,” she said.
Douglass said all forms of artwork will be considered for the show, which will run through the month of March at three different galleries: The Hearth and Wilkinson Houses on campus and the Jawbreaker Community Art Gallery, located on the corner of West Fourth Avenue and Monroe Street.
“It’s a good opportunity for those who just want to have some artwork shown for free,” she said.
Douglass said students’ entries should consider issues related to OSPIRG’s river campaign. Submissions must be received by Feb. 20 and can be dropped off at the OSPIRG office, in Suite 1 of the EMU.
