Event Description
The RAL Art Center and Bay Transit are partnering to commemorate Bay Transit’s 25th year in service.  To acknowledge this milestone, we are sponsoring “Art in Transit” an art competition and exhibition that will benefit both the RAL Art Center and Bay Aging. 
This show will hang at RAL during the month of October and will result in the top three judged works of art receiving monetary awards; 1st place receives $700; 2nd place receives $500 and 3rd place receives $300.  In addition, the first-place winner will have their art installed on the side of a Bay Transit bus for six months. 
Entries MUST feature the concept of motion or movement and embrace each artists’ creativity.   Work must be non-digital paintings or drawings and must comply with an aspect ratio to fit 18.5”  wide x 10” high (entries can be larger but should comply with this ratio). 
Artists may enter up to 2 pieces with entry fees being $20.00 per piece.  The deadline for entering is August 31st with delivery being made to RAL on September 26th or 27th between the hours of 10:00 am and 2:00 pm.  There will be a 30% commission retained for any artwork sold during the exhibit. 
RAL Art Center and Bay Aging will each receive fifty-percent of all entry fees and any commissions retained. 
Doug Mock, RAL Executive Directors states, “The collaboration with Bay Transit and Gander Design, owned and operated by RAL member Mike Stevens, has been wonderful.  RAL is excited to share in the responsibility of bringing this contest and exhibit to our community.  We know art has the amazing ability to enrich all of our lives, in this case it is even more powerful in that it will bring people together and in the end benefit those in need.”
