Echo Park Art Gallery is thrilled to announce our upcoming group exhibition, "Once upon a Time," and we invite artists to submit their work for consideration. This exhibition seeks to explore the magic of fantasies and fables.

Artwork inspired by the boundless imagination of fantasies and fable from any culture, exploring themes of mystery, magic, history, and storytelling. All submissions should reflect the exhibition theme. Works that creatively interpret the subject are encouraged.

Echo Park Art invites artists to step into a world of magic, myth, and wonder with "Once Upon a Time," a group exhibition celebrating the boundless imagination of fantasies and fables. This is an opportunity for emerging and mid-career artists to breathe life into timeless tales, legendary heroes, mystical landscapes, and forgotten myths through visual storytelling.From ancient folklore passed down through generations to original mythologies woven from your own dreams, this exhibition welcomes work that explores the fantastical. Whether you depict epic battles between light and darkness, whispering forests filled with mystical creatures, or enchanted realms shimmering beyond the veil of reality, we encourage you to bring forth artwork that ignites the imagination and transports viewers into otherworldly narratives.
