Call for submissions: Gleaner December cover-art



The Gleaner Community Press is a local independent press that serves
Toronto's west downtown communities with two monthly newspapers, The
Annex Gleaner and The Liberty Gleaner.

Every holiday edition, the Gleaner features community and
holiday-themed artwork on our December covers. They are currently
looking for submissions reflecting this theme.
In the past, the covers have generally been traditional
interpretations of this theme—snowy Annex streetscapes, snowmen and
Santa Claus–but they are open to any and all images reflecting this
theme. Photos, painting, collage, mixed-media, comics, drawings etc.
are all welcome.

Here are the details:

- Deadlines for submissions are Monday, November 21.

- We are looking for two pieces of artwork to feature on our covers,
one for our Annex edition and one for our Liberty edition.

- We will consider both original art and any previous work the artist
may have that they feel is appropriate.

- Bonus points if the artist is local or the art has a local tie-in.

- The artwork will take up the full cover of the Gleaner, fitting
into a 10 inch by 10 inch space. Please submit in a jpeg, or psd
format. Images must be at least 300 dpi.

The artist will not be financially compensated for their work but it
is good local exposure. We will include a short bio of the artist and
a description of the work inside the paper.

All submissions can be sent to gleanerholidaycover@gmail.com .
