2024: QRAA – Finalists Announcement - Flying Arts Alliance

RESOLUTION

The theme for the 2024 QRAA is Resolution. Artists and society as a whole grapple and confront multiple viewpoints and concepts requiring resolution. Through the creative process, artists take this voyage through differing personal and social lenses to reach a meaningful resolution in their work. This reflects and is relevant to the broader journey of society.
