VAGA Gallery only accepts artist submissions via email. We do not accept walk-in and social media submissions.
Before submitting a membership application, we encourage artists to do the following:
- Visit the gallery to discuss the cost and participation requirements of a cooperatively–run gallery.
- Visit the gallery, our website and social media to view the work of our artists in order to see if your work is a fit.
Submissions should include the following:
- Complete the form on this page.
- Upload Artist CV and Artist Statement as attachments in specified format.
- Upload 4-6 images of your work, with medium, size, name and price. Files names for example: oil_24x30_mary_brown_title_24x30.jpg
- Links to your professional social media and website.
Jurying is a 3-step process.
- All email submissions are viewed by the VAGA Jurying Committee. Artists whose work is accepted at step 1, will be contacted for step 2.
- The committee requests an in-gallery artist interview and viewing of artwork before acceptance/non-acceptance.
- Accepted artists pay membership and hanging fees and receive an orientation into their role as an artist-run gallery member.
