BANGOR, Maine — The University of Maine Museum of Art is accepting artist submissions for the second installment of the I-95 Triennial 2013:  From Connecticut to Maine exhibition on display April 5-June 8, 2013.

The I-95 Triennial occurs every three years and features a survey of the finest contemporary artists working in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Rhode Island.

UMMA Director George Kinghorn said, “There are so many exceptional contemporary artists working in these five northeastern states and we are looking forward to receiving an abundance of high-quality submissions. This stretch along Interstate 95 runs through major hubs of artistic production and, as in our inaugural exhibition in 2010, the exhibition will provide a glimpse into the diversity of contemporary creative practice in the region.”

The exhibition is open to professional artists working in varied media including painting, photography, sculpture, video, drawings and prints, and will be juried through artist submissions. Submission criteria is available at  www.umma.umaine.edu. Deadline for submissions is Friday, Oct. 12. A Director’s Purchase prize will be awarded.
