Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, has traditionally been a day of celebration of life, loved ones, and the proverbial tongue stuck out at death. We invite you to celebrate with us via your own calaveras, ex-votos, and retablo art.
More information about this holiday and its traditional art forms can be found here.
Day of the Dead is open to all media. An artist's statement is required with every entry. This statement should include information about the character/story you have chosen and its importance to you. Tell us about your materials, process and something about why you chose to represent your subject in the manner or media that you did. Your statement is an important element in presenting your work online and helps make your work more accessible for the viewer. As texture or other small elements may be pivotal to the piece, detail shots are encouraged. Eligible entries need to meet all points of the prospectus. If you have any questions regarding the prospectus and its requirements, please send them to edu@ebsqart.com.
