Call for Art
An Exhibit to be in the main galleries A Small Point of Land Juror: Michele Poirier Mozzone A blind juried exhibit that includes the artwork of artists who live and/or work in the communities of the east side of Narragansett Bay: East Providence | Bristol | Warren | Barrington | TivertonLittle Compton | Sakonnet | Newport | MiddletownPortsmouth | Jamestown Media Accepted: The only restriction is BAM cannot accept video or time-based work at this time.
Theme and Exhibition Notes: Geographically, Rhode Island can be described as land surrounded by, and adjacent to various waterways and the Atlantic Ocean. Water and land are integral to the state's cultural identity and in particular to the East Bay area. Thematically, the exhibit and its title are derived from the word Narragansett, translated from indigenous language as "a small point of land."

With geography as the exhibition's point of commonality, artists are asked to submit work exploring their relationship to place. The following are some interpretations of this theme:
