ARTS ALLIANCE OF STRATFORD has placed a call for entry for it’s upcoming exhibition, Spectre of the Raven.

Edgar Allen Poe inspired numerous artists to create images that capture the unnerving mystery of his stories. These include Édouard Manet, Gustave Doré, Aubrey Beardsley, and Arthur Rackham.

Want to be part of that prestigious list? We invite artists to submit work that puts their spin on Edgar Allen Poe. Works can be based on his stories, poetry, a portrait of Poe himself, or something evocative of his writings.

Submissions are open to visual art (paintings, drawings, or photography), poetry* or **performance (music, dance, drama, or spoken word).

This art show is part of our “Edgar Allen Poe: A Tell-Tale Soirée” event.
