Original fine art in any media may be submitted, including drawing, painting, printmaking, mixed media, photography, fiber, jewelry, and sculpture.

 

Each artist may submit up to three works of art, which must be the artist’s own original work created within the last three years.

​

Entry fees:

Entry fees are not refundable and the decision of our juror is final. All works entered must be original creations by the artist and must be show-ready upon delivery to the Maine Art Gallery. Work that is different from the submitted entry will not be exhibited. The entry fee for this show is $15.00 per artist.

Original Art Only:

Only original or originally printed works will be admitted; photocopies, color, or computer-generated copies are not acceptable for entry. Giclee reproductions are not eligible.

Diptychs and Triptychs:

Works created in two or three sections will be considered and judged as one entry.

New Work Please:

Works submitted must have been created during the last three years. Work accepted into a previous Maine Art Gallery exhibit is not eligible.

All 2-dimensional entries, with the exception of gallery wrapped canvases, must be framed with either glass or plexiglass. Unframed canvases are fine, as long as they are gallery wrapped (no staples visible). Frames and canvases must be wired and ready to hang (i.e., with two eye screws and steel wire. Sawtooth hangers, “clip” frames or unstable frames will not be accepted.)

2-dimensional work may not exceed 4′ in either length or width, including frame. Sculptural work must fit through a standard doorway. Some pedestals are available, or the artist may supply their own.
