Handheld for the Holidays 2026

Blue Line Arts in Roseville, CA invites artists to submit smaller-scale handmade items such as mugs, bowls, coasters, prints, and other giftable works for this holiday exhibition. Artworks will be sold directly off the wall/shelf with opportunities to restock work with local artists during the exhibition. You may submit up to 10 artworks for consideration.

Artworks should be priced at or below $100, though pieces above this range will be accepted. This opportunity specifically seeks smaller, handmade items suitable as gifts. Commercially printed items and pre-manufactured items are not accepted. All artwork must be original and completed within the last two years, and cannot have been previously exhibited at Blue Line Arts.

The entry fee is $25 for non-members (covers up to 10 images). Blue Line Arts Artist Members ($75 or above) apply for free—contact the Gallery Coordinator at [email protected] for your discount code. Application deadline is September 25th, 2026 at 5:00pm PST. The exhibition runs November 24th to December 19th, 2026. Notifications will be sent by October 16th, 2026.
