U City Library Seeking Gallery Artists

Deadline for submissions is April 30.

THE GALLERY of the is seeking applicants for juried one-month shows for its 31st season. Our large dedicated exhibition space of 1,250 sq. ft. is suitable only for wall-mounted work.

The library is not able to accommodate free-standing pieces or works requiring display cases. Applicants should be familiar with the space and have sufficient work to mount a full one- or two-person exhibit.

Exhibitors are chosen by a jury of local artists.
