The Living Gallery Studio & Exhibition Opportunity, MD
National Deadline: November 30, 2011 – Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center, in Association with the Smithsonian Institution, announces a call for proposals. Open to all media.
From January 15 to February 26, 2012, Annmarie’s spectacular Main Gallery will be transformed into artist studios, providing a serene retreat and experimental space for artists to develop new work, while allowing visitors the opportunity to appreciate the artistic process.
Annmarie seeks artists working in any media to submit proposals to set up a working studio space in the Main Gallery for 1-2 week periods. These studios will be set up much like a ”booth,” utilizing the artist’s own supplies and equipment. Artists are expected to be present in their studio booth during the majority of their scheduled time. Artists will be allowed to sell artwork in their booths. The Annmarie Gift Shop will process all sales and retain a 40% commission.

With over 4200 sq ft of exhibition space, moveable walls, high ceilings, tile floors, and internet access, the Main Gallery can accommodate all sizes and types of studio booth spaces. Annmarie will also provide up to (4) 8-foot tables for each artist’s studio, as well as misc. partition walls and pedestals.
ELIGIBILITY
all media types are welcome.
The exhibition is open to all artists age 18 and older who are living and working in the United States.
