Welcome to the 43rd annual Members’ Art Show & Sale. We are excited to welcome and invite you to participate in a year-end celebration of member showcased artwork. This art show transforms all gallery spaces and honors our members with an opportunity to exhibit and sell their artwork. We accept all submissions and mediums with the intent of highlighting a wide variety of artistic representation. With this in mind, we ask all members to please be attentive to  the following notes for completion of submission:

​

  • Current membership must be valid through December 31, 2024.
     

  • All online submissions are due by Sunday, October 13, 2024 (submission page will close at 5:00pm). All artists who submitted will receive a confirmation email by Sunday, October 20, 2024.
     

  • The artist will receive 60% of the sale price for each work of art sold.
     

  • Each member may submit up to 2 pieces of work, including 3-dimensional work. Diptychs and triptychs may not be submitted as single pieces.
     

  • We ask for original artwork completed within the last two years to keep the show fresh.
     

  • There is no size limit; however, if you submit 2 large pieces, we may only be able to show one piece. We will do our best to accommodate and show as many works as possible.
     

  • Submission deadline, artwork drop-off dates, and artwork pick-up dates are very specific, so we ask that you please respect these dates.
     

  • Please drop off your artwork through the front entrance of the building and upstairs to the Gallery between office hours of 9–5pm.
     

  • IMPORTANT: All artwork must be ready to hang, or it will not be included in the Members’ Art Show. We are not able to supply any hanging systems.  We cannot accept paper works unless framed or mounted with attached hanging hardware.
     

  • Upon dropping off your artwork, please remove all packing materials and take them with you. The Current is not responsible for the storage of packing materials.
     

  • Please complete the Application. (The link will be on our website beginning September 16, 2024.)
     

  • Should you have any questions, please contact Kelly Holt at 802-253-8358  or by email at gallery@thecurrentnow.org
     

  • If your work is rejected due to space limitations, you will be notified within a week of submission.​
