Even after you are accepted, we reserve the right to decline any work that we feel is not appropriate for our gallery, which includes work that is improperly framed, wired or excessively large or expensive. We currently do not host “Solo Shows.”

Exhibit Guidelines if accepted:

• All canvas work should be one-inch or deeper gallery wrap canvas with painted sides, or canvases should be framed (if less than 1” deep). All two-dimensional original work must be framed (unless gallery wrap), wired, ready to hang, titled along with artists name, and price. NO "sawtooth" hangers! They don't work with our hanging system.

• Prints must be matted, in a protective sleeve, titled along with artists contact information and price. We do not hang giclee prints. Prints will be displayed in a print bin.

• Three-dimensional work such as pottery, sculpture, glass, jewelry, etc. must be labeled with title, price and artists name.

• Art submissions will be featured in the gallery for the duration of the “Featured Exhibit”.

• Member Artist’s who have artwork on display in the “Member Artist Gallery” should exchange artwork during the delivery dates of the upcoming featured exhibits. The size of new pieces should be approved with the Art House Director in advance of the delivery, to assure space is available for that size. Member Artist’s should exchange works in the Member Artist Gallery every 2 to 3 months, to help the Art House maintain a fresh and current display of work.
