This information has been circulated via email the past few days, but it appears to be a hoax:

"NEW YORK, NY. -  Due to the tremendous positive response to Bravo's announcement for a creative competition series among contemporary artists, program producers Sarah Jessica Parker and Eli Holzman have announced expansion plans for their Untitled Art Project.  In a Tuesday morning press conference the producers announced additional auditions for the program in San Francisco, Seattle, Dallas and Boston during August."

For anyone not familiar with the their casting call, the Bravo TV casting web page explains the Untitled Art Project, "Magical Elves (Peabody Award-winning Project Runway, Emmy Award-winning Top Chef) and Sarah Jessica Parker (Golden Globe- and Emmy Award-winner) and her production company, Pretty Matches, are teaming up for an hour-long creative competition series among aspiring contemporary artists who will create and compete to conquer the art world!

The Untitled Art Project will bring together thirteen aspiring artists to compete for a gallery show, a cash prize and a sponsored national tour."

The August casting calls for The Untitled Art Project were supposedly going to be at the following cities and galleries:

San Francisco
Saturday, August 15, 10AM - 4PM
Haines Gallery

Seattle
Tuesday, August 18, 10AM - 2PM
Foster White Gallery

Dallas
Saturday, August 22, 10AM - 2PM
Angstrom Gallery

Boston
Wednesday, August 26, 10AM - 2PM
Miller Block Gallery
