Submit Proposals for 2014-2015
Florence O’Donnell Wasmer Gallery is Ursuline College’s art gallery located in the School of Arts and Sciences in Pepper Pike, Ohio. This treasured non-profit gallery is dedicated to the exhibition of dynamic, socially-conscious, emotionally-charged contemporary work by alumni, faculty, students and artists and curators of emerging and established regional or national reputation. Six to seven professional exhibitions are scheduled during each academic year.
Proposals from individual artists will be considered; however, if accepted by the gallery council, group shows may be developed by the Gallery Director.
When writing your proposal, we are interested in why you want to exhibit at Wasmer Gallery. Do you have a new body of work, or work that has not been shown before? Does your work express a particular theme? Would you like to present a group exhibit? Do you have a specific audience you want to target? If you are representing an arts organization or agent for several artists, please include your required fees and put special emphasis in your proposal on why your exhibition would be better presented at the Wasmer Gallery than elsewhere.
The Wasmer exhibition schedule is highly competitive and is carefully planned at least one year in advance to present our viewers with an outstanding and vibrant contemporary art program. The Wasmer Gallery Arts Advisory Committee will review proposals once a year. The deadline to receive proposals for the 2014 exhibition season review is May 31, 2013. We will send e-mail notifications after receipt of materials and after our review.
All submissions should include the following:
- Exhibition Proposal (up to 1 page, include contact information- name, home address, phone number, e-mail, website)
In the proposal include, the theme, a particular time schedule, specific needs of the artist, a listing of the insurance and/or sales valuation of all objects to be exhibited, special requirements to mount or install the work, technical requirements for exhibition (internet connection, VCR, digital projector, sound equipment, etc.) and describe events planned for the exhibition (example: gallery talk, lecture, studio tour, performance, etc.)
