CALL FOR ARTISTS: NATIONAL FINE ART EXHIBITION

About the Show

Dangerous Lullabies VII is an annual group fine art exhibition showcased in the historic (rumored to be haunted) Dole Mansion. This is this exhibition's 7th year, back by popular demand. 

Artists are invited to submit work that explores the curious allure of things that frighten us. If you have work that is designed to examine the beauty found in the ashes of terror or the magnetic pull of work that is disturbing, on-edge or dark, this is the show for you. All mediums will be accepted for consideration.

Joe + Kathleen Isacson are curators & producers of this exhibition, working in partnership with the Lakeside Legacy Arts Park/Foundation at the Dole.

About this year's location: We're back at The Historic Dole Mansion - Crystal Lake, IL
