MALIBU, CA — The City of Malibu Cultural Arts Commission is looking for local artists to submit original work inspired by Malibu’s natural beauty — including flora, fauna and native habitats — for the upcoming community art exhibition, the City of Malibu announced Tuesday. Local artists are encouraged to submit paintings, photography, sculptures, short films, written work, poetry, and other art for "The Birds and the Bees, A Celebration of Spring in Malibu" by the deadline on Thursday, February 20.

"The Birds and the Bees, A Celebration of Spring in Malibu" art exhibition will be on display in Malibu City Hall through May 2020. It can be viewed during City Hall open hours which are: 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Mondays through Thursdays, and 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Fridays. The opening reception will take place at 6:30 p.m. on Friday, March 20.

Artists may submit applications and artwork images online. Artists who have submitted artwork for Malibu's previous "Radical Beauty, Malibu Rising" exhibit can use the same account. Artists are required to submit a separate application for multiple artwork submissions. For more information or assistance with online submissions, contact Rachel Cummings at 310-456-2489, ext. 358
