Calls to Artists
BACKYARD POULTRY CLASS—Three-week class designed to enlighten new chicken owners—or those considering getting some—about raising them in your backyard. Call Stephanie at 208-459-6003 for more info. 6-9 p.m. $20 two people. University of Idaho Canyon County Extension Office, 501 Main St., Caldwell.
BOISE WEEKLY COVER ART SUBMISSIONS—Each week’s cover of Boise Weekly is a piece of work from a local artist. BW pays $150 for published covers. One stipulation of publication is that the piece be donated to BW’s annual charity art auction in November. Proceeds from the auction are reinvested in the local arts community through a series of private grants for which all artists are eligible to apply. To submit your artwork for BW’s cover, bring it to BWHQ at 523 Broad St. All mediums are accepted. Thirty days from your submission date, your work will be ready for pick up if it’s not chosen to be featured on the cover. For more information contact Art Director
Leila Ramella-Rader at leila@boiseweekly.com or 208-344-2055. Boise Weekly, 523 Broad St., Boise, 208-344-2055, boiseweekly.com. BOISE WEEKLY COVER AUCTION GRANT—Because the left hand (advertising) and the right hand (editorial) don’t always talk to each other at BW, we screwed up and printed two different deadlines for the Cover Auction grant. So, good news procrastinators: you have an extension. BW has $16,000 to give to local artists. Apply before Friday, Feb. 11, 5 p.m. Visit Cobweb for details on how to apply, or call Office Manager Shea Sutton at 208-344-2055.
