Solo Shows 2020-2021 at Locust Grove Estate

Barrett Art Center and Locust Grove Estate are offering four solo show opportunities for 2020-2021. Each 10-12 week show presents artists with the opportunity to exhibit 20-30 artworks in the Transverse Gallery in the Visitor Center at Locust Grove, a National Historic Landmark museum, education center, and nature preserve that attracts over 90,000 visitors annually. Exhibition dates run from July 2020 through June 2021.

Solo shows are available for 2-D artwork. Accepted artwork must be properly mounted, framed, and ready to hang from a track-type hanging system. Artwork may be either for sale or for exhibition only. If artwork is for sale, the artist receives 75% and the commission is 25%. The recommended number of works for display is 20-30 pieces, depending on size. Artists are encouraged to develop new works for this opportunity; submitted images do not necessarily have to be among the works exhibited.

Entry fee is $45 ($35 for Barrett Art Center Members). Applicants must submit 6-10 images of their work. Selected artists are invited (though not required) to present a public artist talk at Locust Grove during their solo show. Locust Grove and Barrett Art Center will oversee marketing of the exhibition through press releases and mailing list announcements, and will assist with on-site signage. The artist is responsible for any additional promotion. Contact: [email protected] or 845-471-2550.
