Info for Artists

Before applying, please be aware we require all exhibited artwork be completely original (no reproductions or hand-embellished prints) and to have quality framing/presentation that is professional and consistent. If you are unable to meet these demands, please do not submit an application. If you have any questions, get in touch with us at peninsulagallery1@gmail.com 

     Peninsula Gallery represents around 30 resident artists on an annual basis, showcasing originals only. Each artist has a featured page on this website and is promoted through the business's social media platforms. Resident artists​ are required to refresh their inventory with 4 - 6 new pieces every 3 - 4 months. The reputation of the gallery is staked on a fresh-looking space. Resident artists are restricted from showing commercially within 25 miles, except for short-term shows.

 

    A large area of the gallery is dedicated to monthly themed exhibitions. These short-term shows feature resident artists, as well as newcomers and outside artists. Artists will typically be asked to participate in a monthly exhibition before becoming a resident artist.

 

We require from all of our artists:

  • prompt communication

  • consistent quality of work

  • clean presentation of work and framing

  • organization and timeliness when providing info about art

​​

The gallery operates on a 60/40 commission basis, with 60% of the sale price going to the artist. We do not charge a fee for wall space.
