For the second year of the program, Altered Esthetics invites emerging artists to propose a solo exhibition in any media. We consider emerging artists as those individuals with some artistic experience but whom have not had a substantial opportunity to exhibit a developed body of work, and whom have not had a previous solo exhibition.

Artists in the program will receive:
· Promotion and featured exposure in Ae's newsletters, website and blog
· Personal consultation, guidance and support from the Solo Exhibitions Director
· Press releases distributed through Ae networks
· Hands-on and professional development opportunities and resources
· Help with exhibition installations and deinstallations
· A two month long solo exhibition and a opening night
· A Career Development Guide

Applications for the Solo Exhibitions Program at Altered Esthetics must include all of the requested information listed below. Incomplete applications will not be reviewed. For several reasons, including some changes in organizational funding as well as some grant applications on hold due to the government shutdown, we have decided to extend the submission deadline for the 2012 season of solo exhibitions to September 1 2011.

This is not a postmark date; no late submissions will be accepted. Notification for acceptance into the Solo Exhibitions Program will be after September 1st 2011.
