CALL TO ARTISTS

Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church Art Gallery

Knoxville, Tennessee

The Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Gallery is now planning exhibitions for fall 2008 through 2009.  Artists living within 250 miles of Knoxville are encouraged to submit proposals.

This premier not-for-profit gallery, located a few miles west of The University of Tennessee, programs six exhibitions per year, showcasing regional artists working in a wide variety of styles, media, and genres. The gallery can only show work that is (primarily) two-dimensional and ready to hang. Work must be appropriate to audiences of all ages. Art work will be chosen for solo, two-person, or thematic small-group shows. Exhibitions typically run for two months.

The nonrefundable entry fee for submitting a proposal is $30. The gallery provides publicity and hosts a reception for the artist(s) whose work is selected.

Artists should send 10 to 20 slides or a CD with images of the work (or type of work) they wish to show, a resumé, a brief statement or description of the work, and an SASE. Incomplete proposals will not be considered. Slides should be labeled with the artist’s name, title, media, size, and top. For artists chosen to exhibit, the CD or up to three slides will be kept for publicity. Proposals should be postmarked by May 1, 2008, and sent to:
