| HOME | For Your Information ... Exhibiting work in an all-member show...All members of KAGS are entitled to show their work in any of the all-member shows scheduled throughout the year. Members are notified in advance about upcoming shows, either by email or telephone. The requirements for entering work in an all-member show are: A current membership in KAGS The work should fit with the theme of the show (e.g. landscapes or paintings of animals would not be accepted in the Portrait and figure show) Paintings should be the artist’s own original work, not copied from a book, calendar, etc. All work should be suitably framed, with hardware securely attached a few inches from the top of the frame. A label should be attached to the back of the work with the artist’s name, phone number, the title of the painting, the price (or NFS) and the medium used. Work should be delivered to the Gallery at the times specified by the convener. Oil and acrylic painting should be thoroughly dry so that they can be safely handled by the hanging crew. Gallery sitting from 1 – 4pm at least once during the show is a condition of having paintings hung. If you are unable to gallery-sit, please ensure that someone can do this duty for you. Members are asked to contribute a food item for the show opening. Work should be picked up between 4pm and -6 pm on Thursday (last day of the show) Intake for all-member shows is usually on Thursday from 6-7:30 pm and Friday from 9:30 – Noon The show is designed and hung on Friday afternoon. All-member shows open on the following Sunday, 1 -4 pm. These guidelines do not apply to private or self-hung shows (e.g. the Christmas show) where members rent space and hang their own work. Please check with the show convener. Up-Coming outside shows:
