We are pleased to announce our first annual Emerging Artists Exhibit. This juried exhibit welcomes artists of all ages throughout the Genesee Valley Region in the early stages of their career creating dynamic works in traditional and nontraditional mediums. The goal of this exhibit is to give artists the opportunity to exhibit works in a gallery setting, to meet other creatives, and above all, celebrate their artistic voice. In an effort to truly celebrate the vast creativity in this region, there will be no limit on medium. Works submitted may include (but are not limited to): visual art, performance, literature, poetry, digital media, textiles, music or any mix of the above.
The opening reception will coincide with our renaming ceremony of the Emerging Artist Gallery on April 18th 2020. All works will be dispersed throughout three of our galleries to create a fully immersive experience of this region's burgeoning artistry.
All entries are due midnight of March 24, 2020. There is no fee to submit and works may be priced for sale (with a gallery fee of 25% of sale).
Guidelines:
The focus of this exhibition is to offer local emerging artists an opportunity to showcase their work in a professional setting and gain exposure in the local arts community.
