The Cincinnati based non-profit arts organization and gallery, Manifest, invites visual artists and designers to submit works that explore water as subject, symbol, and environment—revealing its wonder, acknowledging its fragility, and embracing its enigma. Open to all traditional and non-traditional genre and media, including 2D, 3D, etc. For centuries, water has served as a potent metaphor for emotion, memory, spirituality, and time. In calmness it offers clarity and truth; in turbulence it reveals volatility and vulnerability. In its dual nature, water reminds us that perception is always shaped by the medium through which it flows.

ArtWorks is the metro Cincinnati region’s only year-round, workforce development program in the arts. Since launching in 1996, ArtWorks has hired over 4,000 youth (ages 14-24, the majority of whom identify as BIPOC and come from historically marginalized communities) and 3,000 professional artists to create public art projects that instill civic pride and an elevated quality of life for all. The youth apprentice program addresses unemployment for young artists from disadvantaged backgrounds, providing career exploration, work skills, and social and emotional learning that cultivates the confidence young people need to pursue education and career opportunities. As the primary generator of public art in Greater Cincinnati and the largest employer of visual artists, their mission is to create community-based public art. ArtWorks has created over 300 large-scale outdoor murals and thousands of other art outcomes across Greater Cincinnati. As part of a larger renovation project taking place at the Cincinnati Convention Center, ArtWorks hopes to support its local community partner, 3CDC, in bringing a new large-scale mural to downtown Cincinnati, Ohio, that reflects the energy and investments being made at the nearby convention center, convention headquarters hotel, parking garage, and Elm Street Plaza.
