All media, styles and subjects are welcome. All work entered must be for sale. Wall-hung work size maximum: 60 inches in height, 42 inches in width; and for safety reasons plexiglass or other non-glass option should be used for work over 34 inches, excluding pastels. Early submissions are accepted within usual gallery hours.
Artists may submit up to three works for an entry fee of $15 for members, $20 for non-members. Artists will be notified by email or phone of the juror’s decision. Submissions may not have been shown at River Arts previously. Entry forms are available online at www.riverartsme.org and at the gallery when submitting.
Gallery owner and artist, Bruce Busco, will be the juror for this exhibition. He is the owner and director of the Landing Gallery in Rockport and shows his work widely in Maine and New York. The Landing Gallery shows work that is accessible in content and cutting edge in technology in group and solo shows. Busco has a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Pennsylvania State and Masters of Fine Arts in painting and print making from the Pratt Institute. www.landingart.com
