Show Info for Maine Women in the Arts Members - 2023

                    

Heads Up 

We will be requesting photos of recent artwork In March for the rack cards that we make which outline our show season.  These cards are widely distributed in our communities to promote MWA. 

​

A QUICK REVIEW OF SOME IMPORTANT POINTS:

• All members must notify the Exhibits Chair of their intent to exhibit art within the time frames delineated for each show.

• Our artwork racks (stands) can fit framed art only up to 30" across. Hanging art must fit within a 30"x30" space. Two 16"x20" (maximum outside dimension of frame) pieces are allowed. Fine art / 3D or sculpture must have its own pedestal. The term 'original art' encompasses paintings, photography, fiber art and sculpture.

• ALL artwork exhibited must be for sale.

• MWA is not responsible for theft or damage of works and crafts exhibited

Hanging Work: 2 original pieces. See sizes above. Notify the exhibit chair if you plan to exhibit art at a date specified.
