ART26201 invites artists to submit proposals for solo and group exhibitions at the M.I.B. GALLERY in the Colonial Arts Center located at 48 East Main Street, in Downtown Buckhannon. Proposals for exhibitions may be submitted by an artist, or group of artists, at any time. ART26201 will review all submissions and respond to the applicant within 30 days. Artworks in any media may be submitted. Submissions will be judged based on overall artistic excellence, originality, technical quality, thematic depth, and ability to adequately fill the gallery space. All work must be original, of professional quality, and properly framed and wired for display.
Submissions are open to artists of all ages. West Virginia artists, especially those from the Buckhannon region, will be given preference.
