- The purpose of CMIAR is to provide a screening event for local artist residing in Columbus, Ohio and surrounding areas. Submissions from outside the Central Ohio region will be accepted but will be curated into the screening only if time allows. If you have questions about this please feel free to email us.
- The CMIAR is designed to screen moving image art. Art can be a very loosely applied term especially in the case of moving image work. For this reason we suggest that if you believe your work to be art then you should submit. If your piece is a narrative drama you can be fairly assured that it will not be selected. If you have questions about this again please email.
- Selected entries will be chosen based on appropriateness for the current screening. The CMIAR screening is projected to run from 60 to 90 minutes. A large portion of the selection process will be fitting the most amount of work from the most artists in to that amount of time. If a work is not selected for the current screening that does not mean that it will not be selected for future screenings.
- Artist should not submit more than 3 moving image works per submission period.
- There are no formal time constraints on the running time of submitted works. This being said, please re-read number 3. The longer running time a work has the harder it will be to program into a screening. We understand that not all moving image art is under 20 minutes in length and ask artists who submit working that is longer than 20 minutes to be understanding of this difficulty. If you submit a longer work and are not selected for the current screening that does not mean that your work will not be selected in the future.
- All submissions must be physically received 3 weeks before the current screening event. Current submissions are due Friday May4th.
- We will notify selected participants no later than a week before the current screening. Current Screening will be on Friday May 25th.
- Artists wishing to submit work in a format other than DVD should send an email to the address below to inquire about our ability to accommodate presentation of your work.
- By submitting your work to CMIAR you are giving CMIAR expressed permission to use your name and/or work to help in the promotion of CMIAR events. If you have questions about this please email us.
For questions please send an email to CMIAR

Hi,
Are you interested in submissions from Cleveland? Not sure if that would be considered a
“surrounding area” as stated above.
Thanks for your reply.
At this time we are not excepting submissions from other major cities in Ohio such as Cleveland and Cincinnati. We may open this up to all of Ohio eventually but at this time places such as Cleveland have several museums/galleries and events that can help highlight the type of work we are looking to highlight from the Central Ohio/Columbus area. Please be sure to check back frequently because like I said we may eventually open this up to all of Ohio.
Thanks for the question.
