The following are not accepted: wet paint, fragile frames, colored mats, and thick, bulky, decorative frames that are not part of the work of art.​​

Artists maintain copyright of all works in the exhibition. Artists are credited in promotional materials when possible.

​

Insurance: Works are not insured while on display, however, the gallery is climate controlled and protected by a security system. Our experienced staff and installers take precautions to protect the artwork at all times. We recommend that you insure your work if you so choose.
