Opportunity Knocks...
Mark Twain once said, "I was seldom able to see an opportunity until it ceased to be one." Nowadays, the internet makes that a poor excuse.
Art Deadlines is an email list service that alerts you to all kinds of opportunities as an artist:
"Art contests and competitions, art jobs and internships, art scholarships and grants and fellowships, art festivals, call for entries/proposals/projects, and other opportunities, in all disciplines, for art students, art teachers, and artists of all ages."
Best of all, their basic service is FREE.
