The Lompoc Public Library is calling for Central Coast artists to submit work samples and be considered as an exhibitor in the Grossman Gallery.
To be considered, artists must provide a representative body of work of at least six exhibit-ready pieces that will be evaluated for technique, expression, and stylish achievement. The Lompoc Public Library’s Art Advisory Committee will perform the evaluation at its meeting.
The deadline to submit works is Sept. 7. Those who want to have their work considered should deliver the exhibit-ready (framed/finished) pieces to the Grossman Gallery between 3:15 and 3:45 p.m. and pick them up after the committee meeting ends around 5 p.m. The chosen works will be on display within the 2018 calendar year.
The Art Advisory Committee will seek a balanced selection of media for exhibition. Each artist exhibition is expected to last for one to two months from February through December 2018. Exhibits may include two-dimensional painting, photography, and mixed media, and must not protrude more than 6 inches from the wall when hung. Artists must be a minimum age of 18 years and from the Central Coast area. Possible exceptions to the age requirement would be at the Art Advisory Committee’s discretion. One- and two-person shows are welcome.
A smaller continuation show will also be exhibited the month following at the Village Library, 3755 Constellation Road, Vandenberg Village. The Grossman Gallery is located in the main library, 501 E. North Ave., Lompoc.
