2025 Fall Colleciton for Rent and Sale

SUBMISSION DEADLINE: Wednesday, August 20, 2025

* You may enter up to 7 artwork entries.

* Your artwork photos do not have to be professionally taken photos. But they need to be of adequate quality to provide a good representation of the artwork, so the jury can make their selections and accepted work can be posted to your artist page on the Valley Art Gallery website

* You can use a smart phone, iPad or tablet. Be sure that the art is well lit, there is no surface reflection and that it is focused. Ideally we would like JPG images that are a minimum of 1200 pixels wide. The maximum up-loadable file size is 5 megabytes.

* Please be sure to include titles, outside dimensions (including frame), media and price for each artwork.

* The description field is optional. You may use it to write a statement about the inspiration or story behind the piece. Should the piece be selected for the collection, this information will help in our marketing and social media efforts.

* If, over the last couple of months, you have emailed us images for your gallery website artist page and you want them to be considered for this gallery collection, please include them in your EntryThingy submission.

* Please do not click the SUBMIT button until you have uploaded ALL of your images and filled in all the artwork information. EntryThingy will save your submission until you are ready to SUBMIT it.
