We are proud to announce Studio 23’s first in-person event in more than a year!
In collaboration with the 3 Dot Gallery, the Red Door Gallery, and the Alameda-based JMG Motion Pictures, we will be having an outdoor screening of their freshly-released film Romantic Chorus. The movie is an animated-documentary about relationship choices, sex, fear, and technology, which features 21 diverse interviews and a wide variety of tantalizing animation styles created by 17 artists from around the world!
Studio 23 host’s a film screening of “Romantic Chorus” outdoors at Studio 23 & 3 Dot! The Red Door will be open and Quentel The Cryptid will be performing! Open studios at 3 Dot, The Red Door & Studio 23. Beer & wine available for donation.
Romantic Chorus has already played at festivals and special events in the United States, France, and Australia, but this will be its Bay Area debut! Covering topics as diverse as LGBTQIA+ issues, sex and disability, and the strengths and pitfalls of online dating; the film has something for everyone . . . well, everyone 18+!
Bring: Your own lawn chairs. There is limited seating for the screening. Just like if it was an outdoor lawn concert we are encouraging people to bring their own chairs for the film screening. We will have around 20-25 chairs.

Jurors: ArtPush Board Selection Process: There will be a simple scoring system used privately by each judge. Our goal is to demonstrate the wide variety and diversity of styles in the East Bay. There are a limited number of pages and not every entry will be accepted. If your work is not selected for this project it does not mean that your art is not good enough, it simply means that there is limited space.
More about the selection process: Only works from artists living or working in the East Bay qualify for inclusion. Images submitted that are below resolution qualities necessary for printing are automatically eliminated. In order to make the judging process as fair and unbiased as possible an online scoring application was developed so that each judge can evaluate submissions in private.
The online scoring application is a system that lists each image by number without identifying the artist. ArtPush board members evaluate each work based on a scale of 1-5: Originality, Craftsmanship, Elements of Art, Composition, Unity & Variety, Medium & Texture, Use of Space, Presentation and Degree of Difficulty. Final selections are chosen for artworks that received the highest overall score.
We deeply appreciate everyone who submitted their artwork regardless of whether or not the work is featured in this publication
