The procedure for entering artwork for consideration at ‘Tis Gallery is as follows:

Please email us with JPEG images of your artwork or bring in a portfolio of your pieces. Include the title, media, size, and price. When pricing work, please consider that our commission charged to artists is only 10% and that part of the ‘Tis mission is “to provide affordable local art to the public.” Please remember to include your contact information (phone and email). We do not mail portfolios back to artists; you are responsible for picking up your portfolio.

It is not important to submit a bio with your artwork. However, we like to keep a bio on file once your work is in the gallery. Many of our customers request one. Simple bios are preferred, not one written as a resume.

After our curator reviews your images/portfolios, we will contact you to see if they are interested in displaying your work. We will then discuss the gallery schedule and the procedure for bringing work for a new show.

Notes:

1. According to the ‘Tis Gallery mission statement, an artist must live in the Prescott area to qualify for consideration.
2. We have new shows each month, and a “Call for Artists” is emailed to those artists whose work is appropriate for that show.
3. Photography and other wall art will not be in the same show.
4. The curator asks that you not submit a) traditional southwest art, b) traditional landscapes, c) art in overly ornate frames, d) unfinished canvases, e) proselytizing religious subject matter, f) erotica or g) art created for student assignments.

It is important to note that all policies and procedures at the ‘Tis Gallery are subject to change.

Thank you for your interest in showing your work at the ‘Tis Gallery.
