Perfectly sized for collecting and giving.

• HCA takes a 30% commission on all artwork sold in the gallery; however, artists should maintain their prices at a consistent level based upon previous sales.

• HCA will present awards for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place and honorable mention artworks.

Eligibility

• ALL two-dimensional media are accepted for this show. NO 3-dimensional work.

• All work should be “small”…. or no greater than 8×10 inches; there is no minimum size.

• SMALL should not be confused with a more traditional “miniatures” show. Artists who create miniature works are welcome to apply, but this show is more about the element of surprise, experiment, interaction, and whimsy that can happen when you make art tiny!

• Artists may apply with up to seven completed individual artworks. Please no sets of artworks (diptych, triptych, etc.). Artwork can complement other artworks, but each artwork must be priced and sold separately.

• Email hancockcountyarts@gmail.com with any questions.

• All work must be original. NO AI GENERATED WORK.

• Displayed artworks may be photographed for promotion of exhibit (social media, print materials, etc.).

• Entry Fee $35 for up to five entries. $5 per each additional entry.
• Total Submissions: Min. 1, Max. 7

Presentation

• All 2D work MUST be wired for hanging BEFORE drop-off. No sawtooth hangers. Works not ready to hang will not be included in the exhibition.
