Are you an innovative visual artist interested in exhibiting your work at our new gallery space? If so, HUB-BUB is pleased to announce that we are currently accepting applications for exhibition from artists working in every genre from installation art to painting, sculpture to graphic art and everything else in between and beyond.

The Showroom is a contemporary gallery featuring the work of progressive artists and works hard to specifically showcase those artists who are young and emerging. We welcome all regional and national artists to apply.

This is a rolling application process. To be considered for 2008, please submit your package postmarked no later than October 15, 2007. Be sure to check the schedule for other opportunites to show your work such as the BYOA exhibit and Art Markets.

To apply, please send the following information to:

• 10 images of your work on a CD readable by Mac and PCs. Clearly label each image with the title, dimension, and medium of the work.
• A brief biographical paragraph and photograph (jpeg) of yourself (for our files and press information in case your work is selected to exhibit)
• A list of any special technical requirements your exhibit would require
• Current resume
• A self-addressed stamped envelope if you wish for your materials to be returned to you.

The space is a 3,000 square foot wide-open room with exposed brick and gallery carpeted walls.

We will be use a gallery hanging system (with steel cables) and also have some space to hang smaller pieces directly onto a wall. Podiums are available for three dimensional pieces, and electrical outlets are plentiful for those artists requiring monitor/video hook up.

Submissions are reviewed and shows are curated by the Hub-Bub Art Selection Committee which is composed of local artists and art professionals. The committee will schedule exhibits and choose the artist to display. The exhibit schedule consists of group shows with 2-5 artists and themed shows.

Most exhibits show for approximately one month. *The artist is responsible for transporting the exhibited pieces of art to and from the gallery in person or by mail. *2D art must be framed or mounted in some way for hanging.

If possible, we encourage artists to attend the opening reception for his or her exhibition.

Our commission rate is 20%. This fee helps to cover gallery operating expenses.

We will be responsible for the following:

• providing a safe and secure, well-lit gallery to showcase the artists' work
• creating title/ artist/price tags for each piece
• advertising the exhibit in print, on the radio and on the web
• set-up and break-down of the exhibit (local artists are strongly encouraged to help with this for their show.)
• creating invitations to opening night galas
• hosting the gala

Thank you for your interest and best of luck!
