In the off chance that your work isn’t curated into the show by the gallery committee,
you will be contacted via email. There are 3 different dates of selection.
a. Drop off day
b. Curation days
c. Hanging days
Due to our area artist travel distance we hope to make only one email notification after the show is fully hung. Please pick up the work within a week of the time you receive the
message. It is not the responsibility of theArtWorks to store artwork.
Once art has been accepted for a show an artist may not remove without prior permission
