- The ARTIST will be responsible for the following
SOBA reserves the right to judge whether art is appropriate for display and meets the Gallery Display Guidelines.
Bin art is limited to five pieces and should be replaced every four months. All reproductions, including hand colored reproductions of pen/ink drawings, must be identified on the mounting board. The term “reproduction” should be clearly indicated.
Do NOT use the term “Giclee” as most customers do not recognize that this is a printing process. The
term “print” should be reserved for the printmaking category (mono prints/relief/intaglio/screen).
Both limited and open editions reproductions are allowed but each member can include no more than one copy of the same reproduction simultaneously in the bins.
All bin artwork should be “signed in” in the Bin Art Notebook in the credenza.
Fill out labels completely which are in the Bin Art Notebook and secure to the back of the artwork. All artwork must be matted, backed with foam core and wrapped with a clear protective plastic.
New larger Bin available for Maximum overall size of 20 x 26”.
All 3D art must be created solely by the artist.
New member’s 3D work will be juried before acceptance
Any three dimensional artwork (ceramic / sculpture /wood / glass) that will be featured on our pedestals must have a maximum base dimension 12” x 12” and maximum height of 24”.
Larger sculptures will be juried and if accepted, must stand on the floor or on a pedestal furnished by the artist.
Ceramic and glass art works must be inspected for chips or cracks before being displayed. All 3D work must be free of sharp or excessively pointed edges and must be able to stand securely without additional support.
Three dimensional artists may display up to 4 items. Three dimensional pieces may stay on display for up to 4 months.
Like all other art in the gallery, jewelry must be original and handcrafted by the artist. It needs to be professional in style and appearance.
New jewelers will be juried before acceptance. It must be placed in the glass case with appropriate stands and tags. *Tags must be printed and of uniform size for artistic appearance.*
There is a limit of 9 pieces per jeweler at any given time. Jeweler sitting obligation is one half day per month. Guidelines for Display of Miniatures
A member who has paid the exhibiting fee may display up to TWO miniatures. ONE or TWO Miniatures may remain for ONE month.
Miniatures must be placed monthly at changeover. No three dimensional works will be considered.
Miniatures will be displayed on shelves. Sitting obligation for only Minis (one or two) is one half day per month.
Please refer to gallery sitting guidelines. Gallery Sitting Obligations
One half day per unit per month that you have items on display as described below: Each framed or gallery wrapped artwork; and
Three dimensional art (clay, wood, glass or metal) Miniature paintings as follows:
If you are sitting for a painting already in the show you may show up to two minis without additional sitting time.
NOTE while you sit, you may display an additional piece of work. Gallery commission still applies. If you elect to sit on a Sunday, that will cover your sitting obligation for one hanging item and/or one or two Minis in the current show.
If you need to change a sitting date it is your responsibility to find a substitute. If your date is not kept you will not be able to exhibit the following month. Sitting dates should always be during the month of the show.
We urge you to visit the gallery ahead of changeover to reserve your sitting date(s). ALL DATES MUST BE FILLED BEFORE DOUBLING UPAs you know, these commitments are important to the success of our gallery.
