Greater Los Angeles | Open Call

Dama Gallery, located in Ventura, California, is accepting submissions for exhibition consideration. The gallery focuses on mid-career and established artists and is open to non-represented artists. Exhibition lengths vary from 1 to 3 months, with the number of pieces depending on the artist's medium and work sizes. Featured artists are invited to attend receptions, and a selected few may be invited for recorded artist interviews or panel discussions. Artists selected for exhibition will be considered for representation by Dama Gallery, which includes priority consideration for future exhibitions, professional consultation, portfolio assistance, and marketing support.

Submissions must include 3-20 images of original, unsold artwork. All artwork must be professionally framed, matted, and wired, with 2D work ready to hang. Accepted media includes painting, printmaking, sculpture, glass, fiber, functional work, digital art, photography, installation, mixed media, and new genres. The entry fee is $35 for 3 images, with an additional $5 per image up to a maximum of 20 images. Artists are responsible for round-trip shipping and insurance. Dama Gallery retains a 50% commission on sales. Sales remittance occurs 5-7 business days after the exhibition ends and/or upon buyer payment finalization.
