Work Sample Requirements 

Please submit a maximum of 3 photos that are representative of your artwork. You can capture more than one item per photo. Your photos do not need to show all the pieces you intend to sell. Photos must be JPEG or PNG format, between 1MB-5MB in size. All work must be for sale (the selling price cannot be changed after entry).

Presentation

All items must be display-ready, with a tag that has your name, unique item code/description, and price. You must be clear whether stands/supports are included in the sale price or not-for-sale. If you intend to sell ornaments, we have trees that can be used for your art. Please let us know if you’d like us to display your work on a tree.

Upon acceptance, an inventory sheet will be emailed to you. A typed, completed, and signed inventory sheet must be emailed to the Exhibitions Manager, Arida Dhanaswar, arida@fallbrookcenterforthearts.org, by the artist’s drop-off appointment. Be sure that each item on your inventory sheet matches the same unique code listed on the sales tag. If the inventory sheet is not typed, artists will be charged $25/hour for total time taken by the Exhibitions Manager to type up the sheet. Items not on the inventory sheet will not be accepted to the Show. Fallbrook Art Center reserves the right to withhold any work from display. 

Accepted artwork must be dropped off in a stackable container/tote not exceeding 26” in length with a tight-fitting lid, labelled with the artist’s name. Artwork not in a stackable container with a tight-fitting lid will not be accepted. 

The Show will be curated and juried by the Exhibitions Manager and Retail Sales Manager.
