HOUSTON, Oct. 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The CAL National 2021 (formerly the Madeley National) is presented by the Conroe Art League to highlight the visual arts and enrich the community with variable artistic experiences.
Now in its sixth year, the exhibit has grown into one of the premier art shows in Texas. Last year saw nearly 700 entries from 40 states. The 2021 CAL National is supported by the National Endowment for the Arts as a part of their Artistic Enrichment in American Communities (AEAC) program.
The static, month-long exhibition will also feature the creation of a collaborative mural by internationally recognized wildlife artist and CAL member Vickie McMillan Hayes. She will collaborate with a team of hands-on artists and non-artists to create a free-standing, painted canvas piece that will be donated to a local non-profit at the end of the exhibit.
The CAL National 2021 Exhibit will be taking place in Historic Downtown Conroe, Texas in conjunction with other artistic events including the Young Texas Artists Classical Music Competition and performances from member organizations of the Greater Conroe Arts Alliance featuring literature, theatre, choral, dance, jazz, and other artistic disciplines.
