Local artists are being invited to get inspired by words.

The Arts Council of New Westminster has issued a call for its Inspired By Words exhibition, which will run April 3 to 28 in conjunction with Lit Fest New West on April 14.

Original, recent artworks in all media are welcomed.

The arts council notes it's looking for works "which, having been inspired by words, will lift the spirits of the viewers by the humour, beauty, the unusual and the unexpected. Visitors will be inspired to look at words in a new light."

Artwork should be framed and ready for hanging.

Sculptures - in clay, wood, organic material or glass - should be of a size that can be easily handled and displayed.

Fabric and fibre arts are also welcome, as are literary or eletronic arts and music.

The registration deadline is March 9.

Entry forms are available at the arts council office in Centennial Lodge, Queen's Park. Artists can also find more information and forms online at www.artscouncilnewwest.org.
