BVAA Alternatives Uxbridge Community Art Gallery Information

Participation is open to all past and present BVAA members. Each participant may exhibit three works. A portion of all sales goes to support the work of Alternatives in the community.

Entering the Show
The fee for entering is $25 for up to 3 works. All participants must either be current BVAA members or have belonged to the BVAA in the past. The theme is wide open. You can submit a portrait, landscape, still life, abstract, seascape, you name it. Your imagination is the limit.

Artwork can be any size. That being said, please contact us first if you plan on bringing anything over 20″ x 30″ in size. We need to arrange for space for those separately.

All artwork must be family friendly and properly wired for hanging. Our hanging system does not work with saw-tooth or triangle hangers. If you are new to preparing artwork for shows, read our page on How to Mat and Frame a Photo. Please also check out our Show Terms and Conditions

Submissions
To submit your entries use our BVAA Online Submission Form. The deadline to submit is midnight on Monday, May 14th, 2018. Work must be dropped off by Wednesday, May 16th, 2018 at 3pm. All work which is brought in will be hung (as long as it is properly wired and is family-friendly).

We will hang the show on Thursday.

Opening Reception
The opening reception will be determined, probably Friday, May 18th. Invite family and friends – all are welcome!
