It's that time of year again to prepare for another Open Call Exhibit at the Gourgaud Gallery. This is our 10th annual event and the theme this year is “ALIVE-HUMAN, ANIMAL AND PLANT LIFE” The reception will take place on Sunday January 6, 2019, from 1:00-3:00 p.m.

ALIVE-HUMAN, ANIMAL AND PLANT LIFE, may include any art medium that illustrates any form of life in the artwork. The art should include any one or more of the theme either as the main subject or incorporated in the piece or pieces you are submitting.

Any painting, drawing, collage, photography, or other medium, IS ACCEPTABLE. We are limiting the entries to 2-3 pieces per artist. We do our best to make sure everyone has the same chances for exposure. NO MORE THAN 1 ITEM PER PERSON WILL BE ACCEPTED AS NOT FOR SALE.

The date and time for receipt of work will be Thursday, Jan. 3, 2019, 9:00 -10:00 a.m. at the gallery. If weather forecast is threatening a storm, where you may not be able to bring it in on time, leave your work in the back closet, or behind the screen (before Jan.3), and e-mail me to tell me you dropped it off before the date appointed for collection---(work brought in after the appointed time and date will not be accepted). Include the application with your work in clearly marked bags. Each piece should be clearly labeled on the back with name, title and price-please attach your check for $5 with a paper clip to the application. We will notify you of accepted work as soon as possible. Work must be properly wired for hanging. If work is not properly wired for hanging, it will not be accepted.
