Sponsored by VSA arts and Volkswagen of America, Inc. Open to young artists with disabilities, ages 16 -25, living within the United States. No entry fee. "Destination Anywhere" invites artists to consider the picture plane as a destination, a place where the viewer might take a trip they never expected. Art must be an original work that has been completed in the last three (3) years. Eligible media includes: paintings, drawings, fine art prints, photography, computer generated prints, and mixed media; must be presented in two dimensions. Artwork should not exceed 60 inches in either direction. Fifteen (15) finalists will be awarded a total of $60,000 in awards during an awards ceremony on Capitol Hill in September 2006, and artwork will be displayed in a nation-wide touring exhibit that debuts at the Smithsonian.
