This year’s Global Astronomy Month is highlighting art in all various media. We would like artists to submit proposals for programs/activities/events during GAM 2015.

Here are the criteria for submissions:

Projects can be existing works or those that are specially designed for GAM 2015.
It must be globally accessible (either a google hangout, blog post, photos posted online, downloadable documents). If it is a live performance it must also be broadcast simultaneously online.
Artists are encouraged to present the exhibition, film or performance at a physical location (museum, art gallery, science museum, astronomy club, planetarium etc).
We would like it to be interactive with the (global) audience and make the most of online platforms
6. It would be an advantage to tie in with other events planned during GAM 2015 that would be ideal – such as SunDay (12 April), Lunar Eclipse (4 April), etc, check our schedule for ideas.
We would request a detailed proposal outline how your project fits into the criteria above.
