HaLapid: Journal of the Society for Crypto-Judaic Studies (SJCS) is seeking artistic submissions in the form of paintings, drawings, photographs, etc. to feature on the cover of its next volume. We invite artists’ submissions on a variety of themes pertaining to crypto-Judaism, crypto-Jews, and/or crypto-Jewishness. Artists dealing with aspects of the Sephardic experience or crypto-Jews in the American Southwest are also welcome. If you have a collection of crypto-Jewish themed art, we will likely want to feature an article of you and your art in HaLapidas well.

HaLapid is a multidisciplinary peer-reviewed journal,published by the Society for Crypto-Judaic Studies, which is affiliated with the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs. HaLapid focuses on the contemporary and historic development of crypto-Jews, particularly those of Iberian origin. We feature academic as well as artistic and literary content. We are a non-sectarian scholarly society.




Call for Blog Posts


Jewish Art Education invites contemporary Jewish artists to write short (about 500 words) blog posts for its J Art Blog (http://jarted.org/EasyBlog/Latest.html). 
The contributions should focus on how their Jewish experience influences their art. If an artist prefers, JAE can interview the artist and write an article that can be reviewed for approval prior to posting. Photos of artworks are encouraged. Please send the blog posts to Robert Barkin, Executive Director, Jewish Art Education at rbarkin@jarted.org.

Call for images for online journal
Zeek: A Jewish Journal of Thought and Culture is hosting an open call to put together art together for upcoming issues. If you'd like them to consider your art, see info here.


IndieWalls.com is helping artists who are looking for non-gallery public exposure connect with local venues (upscale cafes, restaurants, bookstores, and other retail venues) who want to display their art for sale on their walls. Artists create profile pages, which the venues can browse through (eliminating the need to lug their portfolios all over town.) IndieWalls.com also includes a secure and easy online payment system through which buyers can easily purchase the art they see for sale in these public venues. It's a new and exciting way for emerging artists to start hanging their works in public venues (through a safe and easy system). Artist application is very simple - www.indiewalls.com
