Good news for artists who would like to submit their ideas for this year's Lunar Chinese New Year sculpture show, the seventh in a series of popular annual public art campaigns. The deadline has been extended to Friday, January 20.

January 2012 marks the start of the Year of the Dragon on the Chinese calendar. Once again, St Clair Superior Development Corporation (SCSDC) will install numerous fiberglass sculptures -- this year, dragons -- featuring unique designs created by Northeast Ohio artists and organizations. The Dragons will be placed outside Cleveland businesses this spring and will be auctioned off next fall.

Selected artists will be paid an honorarium of $400 upon completion and will receive two tickets to the Year of the Dragon Gala Auction Event (a value of $250).
