Submissions

Artists may submit up to three artworks for consideration.

All mediums and subjects will be considered, however art equal or less than 4x4 ft will be considered first due to our limited gallery space. Additionally, due to limited electrical access, plug-in artworks may not be accepted due to facility limitations.

Fees: $25 to submit one artwork, with additional entries (up to two) for $5 each

Submission fees help the art center offset costs associated with the exhibition and directly fund the ArtCall platform, administrative processing, exhibition, and promotional materials. 

The NSCA offers a number of fee waivers for every exhibition. If the application fee poses a financial barrier for you at this time in your artistic career, please use the following codes: "DIAL50" to receive 50% off your submission fee or "DIAL100" to waive the fee completely.
