Non-Fiction on the theme of “Home Not Home.

dichotomies of the concept of home. Home Not Home will investigate
various themes, including: belonging/not belonging, freedom/captivity,
safety/danger, comfort/discomfort, inclusive/exclusive,
building/destroying, and place/displacement. Home Not Home aims to demonstrate that while the concept of home is universal, the experience is very personal.

Please
feel free to turn in application with final written work prior to the
deadline, but no later than this date so that we have time to document

About the Project and Exhibition:
The project is a collaboration between Anysquared Projects and Pilsen Art and Community House (PACH),
as part of the Home Not Home Series. We are excited to also inspire
collaboration between writers and artists while they explore the Home
Not Home theme.
Accepted writer’s works prompt new works of
visual artists. The collaborative works will result in a poster series
distributed city-wide and exhibited at PACH.
In early 2024, PACH
and AnySquared will host a “meet and greet” at AnySquared Studio for
writers and visual artists to exchange ideas for the posters. The
exhibition will be in May 2024 at PACH with an opening, and a series of
arts programming including workshops, spoken word events, music nights,
markets, and gallery hours.
Exhibition Opening: Friday, May 3rd, 2024
Exhibition runs: May 3rd – June 2nd
