Call for Artists!

La Reunion and The Belmont Hotel present
‘Art With a View’ - La Reunion in the OC

The La Reunion artist selection committee is making a call for art relating to Oak Cliff and specifically La Reunion if possible. All media will be considered, although works wired and ready to hang will be given preference.

Inspiration:
The original La Reunion colony was instrumental in the cultural formation of Dallas and specifically Oak Cliff in the mid-1800’s. The first piano and brewery were here as a direct result of their settlement. Although they failed as a utopian artist colony, they have had a lasting impact on current Dallas through street names, descendants, and artistic sensibilities. Feel free to Google the colony for access to pictures, maps, and other historical information. Be creative!
