Call for entries…

Calling all artists! DCA is excited to announce a new CALL FOR ART for the upcoming November/December 2025 Exhibition, Vanishing Landscapes.

Here's a little more about the exhibition:
Vanishing Landscapes is a group exhibition of artists working across multiple mediums including painting, photography, sculpture, video, and more, who question the relationship between the environment and self. The selected works are both personal and universal responses to the disappearing natural places that we call home.

Traditionally, a landscape is defined as a natural scenery with mountains, forests, rivers, etc. Exhibited works in Vanishing Landscapes define the term 'landscape' as both the depiction of a natural scenery, as well as the emotional, psychological and cultural landscape that we share with the natural world.
