Rules for 2025 Juried Exhibition

Rules for the 2025 WAAA Exhibition:

  1. Only WAAA members, age 18 and over, may enter work. To enter this juried show, be sure to join and pay your 2025 dues before March 27th 2025.

  2. All artwork must have been created during 2024/2025 and cannot have been previously exhibited in a Wilson gallery or store.

  3. Each participating member can submit up to two pieces of orginal art. Entry fee is $10 per painting/artwork. For hanging work, the maximum size is 24” x 30”. Frames should add no more than 2” to these dimensions.

  4. Unframed paintings are acceptable if the canvas edges have been painted. (No blank canvas should be visible.)

  5. All hanging artwork must be wired properly for gallery hanging. The wire must be installed 1/3 of the height of the piece, down from the top. The wire should be as straight as possible from side to side to prevent the wire from showing when the piece is hung.

  7. Art drop off for this show will be March 29th from 10:30 am to 12 noon. The final day of the exhibition is May 2nd. Art pick-up will be Saturday, May 3rd from 10:30-noon.
