See below for notes and announcements! Some of these opportunities have deadlines very soon:

• George Mason University, Manassas Campus, is looking for a caricature artist for an event on April 26 (10-2). If anyone is interested, please contact Marit Majeske, 703/993-7741, [email protected] before April 18.
• Registration for Artomatic is still open! The site crashed when we first posted about this last week, but they have added capacity to deal with the traffic, so try again if you haven’t already.
• The XL-XS show by Maryland Federation of Art, previously mentioned in this space, has a entry deadline April 18. The show is for extra-large and extra-small works in two dimensions. For more details and online entry, visit the MFA website.
• Alexandria studio for lease: An 11,500 sq. ft. warehouse is being remodeled for artists. It’s about 2.5 miles from the Torpedo Factory and near the intersection of Duke Street and S. Quaker Lane. The studios have full spectrum lighting. Onsite parking is free, and you will have 24/7 access. Each artist has a key to his or her studio and another key to the building’s main entrance. For information on the available studio space please contact Liz Boynton: [email protected] or 703-759-4227.
