[NEohioPAL] Akron Symphony Seeking Artists for Music and Art Poster Series

[Thomas Moore]

The Akron Symphony Orchestra will debut a Music and Art series for the 2019-20 season, with artists from across Northeast Ohio creating limited-edition posters for select concerts.



Interested artists are asked to submit a poster design that represents their own interpretation of a selected concert based on the music and/or composer. There are no requirements on colors or the finished size of the poster.



Up to four artists will be selected for each concert and selected artists:



*       will receive two free tickets for the performance,

*       will have the opportunity to display and sell their artwork the night of the concert at The University of Akron's E.J. Thomas Performing Arts Hall,

*       will have their poster featured on the Symphony's social media channels.



"We are always exploring opportunities to create partnerships that have a positive impact on the community," said Thomas Moore, Director of Marketing for the Akron Symphony. "Musicians and artists have long inspired each other, so building a relationship between the Symphony and the many creative artists in Northeast Ohio is a natural extension of those longstanding ties."



The performances that will be featured in the Music and Art series are:



*       Symphonic Shakespeare on October 19

*       The Four Seasons on November 16

*       Mozart's Requiem on February 22

*       Symphonic Dances on May 16



Artists who are interested in participating in the project may submit their art by September 1, 2019, by visiting akronsymphony.org/music-art.?
