(RIVERHEAD, NY) The East End Arts Gallery is pleased to announce an open call for artist participation in the upcoming juried, all media art show, Shadow, at the East End Arts Gallery, opening with a reception on Friday, March 14 and running through April 18, 2014.

- Visual art entries will be accepted on Thursday, March 6 from 10 AM to 4 PM; Friday, March 7 from 10 AM to 4 PM; and Saturday, March 8 from 10 AM to 3 PM at the East End Arts Gallery.
