Call to Artists for 2014 Small Works Show and 2014 Itty-Bitty Mini Show


This show is juried, but all entrants are guaranteed at least one work in the show. No limit on number of entries.
All works must be original, conceived by the artist rather than copied from some other work and also not a reproduction of the artist’s own original. Works may be in any art media. No copies.  Giclee is not a media. It is a form of reproduction and not allowable.
Paintings and drawings in the main Small Works Show must be wired for hanging. Works in the Itty-Bitty Mini Show may be submitted either ready to hang or with their own mini-easels to be sold along with the work.
Entries will be received on Friday, October 31, and Saturday, November 1, noon to 5 pm. Opening reception is First Friday, Nov. 7.  Awards presentation and judge’s critique will be Tuesday, Nov. 11, 7 pm.
All works must be for sale. The gallery commission is 25%. Payment is made early in the month following the sale.
Show ends November 30, but if you wish to leave the works in the gallery for an additional month to take further advantage of the holiday sales period, members pay $3 for 1-2 items, non-members $4;  for three or more items, members pay $5, non-members $6.
In addition to the awards listed with the individual show rules, there will be People’s Choice awards in both the main Small Works Show and the Itty-Bitty Mini Show.
Should you join to lower your fees? Consider this: Membership is $50 (the equivalent of $4.17 per month). Dues year runs July 1 to June 30. Membership provides discounts for our competitive shows and our classes, and only members can show work in our gallery except for certain open shows such as this one.
