GUEST ARTIST APPLICATION PROCESS

Why do we jury artwork? Exhibition space is limited. It is the jury’s job to eliminate weaker entries. Don’t let sloppy presentation, incomplete information, or poor visuals become the reason that a jury rejects your work. Be sure to put your best foot forward.

Submissions are accepted in-person or via email until 5PM on Tuesday, November 11
On or before November 13 - Artists will be notified via email of their acceptance or rejection
