Exhibition Guidelines:

  • Each piece will be no more than 13 inches on the longest side (including the frame) and no smaller than 5 inches on the shortest side (including the frame).
  • Artwork must be ORIGINAL ONLY and cannot have been completed as a part of a workshop or an instructor-led class. Artist may not copy work of others or use photos or published materials of copyrighted materials.
  • Only 2-D framed artwork will be accepted. 
  • No giclee prints, photography, jewelry, pottery, ceramics, or sculpture.
  • No artwork that may be deemed pornographic, offensive, or violent will be accepted
  • Up to two pieces of artwork may be exhibited. If two pieces are specified to be hung together, they count as multiple pieces, not a single piece.
  • All framing must be presentable, wired, and ready to hang (no saw tooth hangers or center-mounted hardware) with hanging hardware mounted with screws to the frame itself, not the backing. Wire must cross the rear of artwork from both sides of the frame. Stretched canvas mounted panels that are 1/2 inches or greater in depth do not need to be framed if the edges are finished/painted. Artwork that is not presentable or ignores the guideline specifications will not be hung. Consult the curator for further questions regarding specifics of framing and hardware.

The Center reserves the right to refuse to hang artwork that does not comply with exhibition guidelines.

Open to all.
