TFAA Membership Jury

All artists working in fine arts and fine crafts are eligible, including paintings, photography, printmaking, ceramics, textiles, jewelry, sculpture, glass, film, video, and more. Upon selection, the candidate becomes a TFAA Associate Artist. This call is for membership in a professional artist association, not for studio space. The application fee is $75, which covers the first year of dues for accepted artists.

Phase I requires submission of 5 to 8 images of original finished 2D or 3D artwork created in the last two years. Film/video/animation artists must submit 5 to 8 clips. Both phases of jurying are blind; jurors will not see candidate names or any other identifying information. Do not include information about educational experience, residencies, awards, professional qualifications, or personal information in your application.

Successful Phase I candidates will be notified by email and required to bring 5 original works of art or video to the Torpedo Factory Art Center in Alexandria, VA on March 31 or April 1, 2019, with pickup on April 4 or 7, 2019. Shipping is available; contact [email protected] for information and costs. In Phase II, applicants must provide a USB drive with 12-20 additional images of work, with two-thirds completed in the last 2 years. Separate panels of jurors review different types of work submitted.
