The West Concord Cultural District Committee is launching a new project.  After sponsoring murals, sidewalk decals, the Poetry Phone, the painting of signal boxes and Porchfest, we are issuing a Call for Art for our first sculpture project.  The winning piece will be on display for one year (with the option to be renewed) at Junction Park, which is near the corner of Main Street and Commonwealth Avenue.  Junction Park is steps away from the West Concord MBTA rail stop and beside the path of the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail.  With gardens tended by the local Green Thumbs gardeners and benches that invite walkers and riders to stop and rest, we hope that the sculpture will reflect the love of nature and the peace it brings while also inviting people to enter the park and our cultural district.
The Call for Art is open to all Massachusetts artists aged 18 and over, working individually or in teams.  The deadline for applications is April 3, with the intention that installation will be completed by late summer.  The artist will receive a $4000 stipend.  For project guidelines and application, please go to https://tinyurl.com/West-Concord-Sculpture.

Artists of all ages are invited to enter the Stronger Together: Art for Democracy competition, with cash prizes and no entry fee. Two-dimensional art will be accepted until April 10, 2026. 
Art is a powerful tool for social change. Unbound by age, culture or social location, it sparks the imagination and promotes meaningful dialogue. With the goal of encouraging civic engagement, artists across New England are invited to submit works on the theme of protecting and strengthening American democracy. Successful entries will express the goals of promoting unity and the common good, which underscores the American ideals that all voices are important and that our strength lies in welcoming diverse perspectives. 

Prize money of $1000 will be shared in youth and adult categories. Enter by submitting photographs of the completed two dimensional work from February 16 until April 10, 2026. Works will be judged on artistic merit and how well they convey the theme of promoting democracy. For full details see: https://www.fculittle.org/events/art-contest-stronger-together-art-for-democracy

An opening reception of the juried show will be held on May 2, 2026 at First Church Unitarian, 19 Foster Street, Littleton, Mass. Additional exhibitions at the Fitchburg Art Museum Community Gallery, Westford Parish Center for the Arts, Reuben Hoar Library in Littleton, and Muffins on Main in Westford.  

The goal of the contest is to spur productive dialogue; showcase the work of New England artists and celebrate democracy. The contest is sponsored and supported by the Reclaiming Our Democracy Taskforce of First Church Unitarian, Littleton; League of Women Voters of Westford; Littleton Cultural Council; Westford Cultural Council, and private donors.
