Stand Out Prints 2018: International Juried Print Exhibition

Highpoint announces Stand Out Prints, the fourth international juried print exhibition. The exhibition will fill Highpoint's 1,000+ square feet of gallery space with select impressions of contemporary printmaking. The exhibition runs from September 7th through October 6th, 2018, with an opening reception on Friday, September 7th from 6:30-9pm.

The juror is Crawford Alexander Mann III, Curator of Prints and Drawings at the Smithsonian American Art Museum. This is an exhibition of unframed work, and Highpoint pays for return shipping within the U.S.

Eligibility: Artists must be 18 years of age or older. Work must have been completed within the last two years (since 2016). While non-traditional or digital output is accepted as a print element, submissions must utilize some form of traditional print media (Lithography, Relief, Intaglio, Screenprinting, Monotype, Collograph). Individual artworks may not exceed 8 feet (96 inches / 243 centimeters) in any direction. Three-dimensional work may be submitted. Each artist may submit 1-3 images for consideration (including detail images). Entry fee is $30 (non-refundable). $3,000 in cash prizes and $300 in retail prizes will be awarded by the juror. Highpoint will retain 20% of proceeds from exhibition sales. Work does not need to be available for purchase to be eligible. Prints will be displayed unframed behind glass cut to paper size (unless otherwise specified by the artist). Work will be insured while on Highpoint's premises. Damages incurred in transit are the responsibility of the artist. All accepted work must be packaged in sturdy, reusable containers. Packaging, shipping, and related costs to Highpoint are the responsibility of the artist. Artists outside the continental United States will be assessed return shipping charges.
