Call for NC Artists: Open a “Window of Sound” at the Moogseum

The Moogseum, a project of the Bob Moog Foundation, is excited to announce “Window of Sound,” a collaboration with local artists to design and install a storefront window display in our Moogseum in downtown Asheville.  

The goal of “Window of Sound” is to enhance the visibility of the Moogseum, bring Bob Moog’s pioneering legacy to life visually, and collaborate with local artists who share an interest in inspiring the public through the intersection of science, music, technology, and history.  

Each selected artist will receive a $1000 stipend, inclusive of supplies, to create and install their display.

This project is made possible by the generosity of the North Carolina Arts Council.
