*Call for Submissions for the 7th Annual Wearable Art Gala*
Deadline for submissions: January 31, 2010

Self-expression and extravagance reigned at the Alternator's Wearable 
Art Gala in 2009, as a huge, diverse and daring crowd took in the 
sold-out theatre show, and over 200 partygoers danced late into the 
night, making it the Alternator's most successful event ever.

The gears are now turning in preparation for the Alternator's 7th Annual 
Wearable Art Gala coming July 17, 2010. This fun and funky adult event 
is not a fashion show in the traditional sense - it's an artistic 
exploration of all types of body adornment. All creative minds are 
called upon to participate. New categories include Indigenous culture, 
the art of light, dark art, cyber art, emancipation and freestyle.

If you have an interesting idea of art you can wear, simply download an 
entry form from our website by following the Opportunities link to 
Special Calls. Follow the instructions making sure entries include 
drawings and/or photos of your submission along with a brief description 
of your project.

Cash prizes totaling $1000 are up for grabs including a $500 peoples' 
choice award.

There are no entry fees. Wearable art submissions can be returned, just 
include an SASE with your entry form. Accepted submissions will be 
showcased at the Alternator's 2010 Wearable Art Gala to be presented at 
the Kelowna Community Theatre.
