After the success of the inaugural event last October, Culturescape will return to the Blue Mountains in February and the event will run for two consecutive nights on the front face of the Carrington Hotel in Katoomba.
Culturescape hopes to attract entries from artists across the Mountains, including student artists of all ages.
The entry requirements have been simplified for 2016-2017 to allow for a wider range of entries from across the arts community.
Culturescape festival director Tom Taylor said: "We are looking for artists to submit entries in traditional mediums such as paintings and drawings, and Culturescape can also accept photography, digital artwork and even photographic submissions of locally created sculpture and jewellery."
Entries close on December 31. Details at: www.culturescapebluemountains.com.
