Enter a Valley Art Center Gallery Exhibition
Call-to-Entry Help Day
for entering Identity: PLACES
December 29, 2018
20 spots, starting at 10:00 a.m.
Call 440-247-7507 to register
Attention all Valley Art Center students, members and faculty! Do you need help entering your art in Identity: PLACES, our next gallery exhibit? For one day on Saturday, December 29, beginning at 10:00 a.m., we will assist you in photographing and entering your art. For $5 per piece (up to three works of art), we will photograph your art piece(s) and help you enter through ArtCall.org on a computer at VAC.
Only 20 spots! Call VAC at 440-247-7507 to register. Please decide how many works you want to enter—up to three pieces—before registering. $5/piece payment due at registration. Additional entry fees due by credit card with your onsite entry on the 29th. Bring your credit card with you to your session for $15/piece entry fees. Have your title, price, medium, date, and dimensions ready to input. If you already have an ArtCall account, you will need your user name and password. Otherwise, you will need to bring a personal email address. Do not bring a camera--VAC will take the pictures for you.
All work must be finished, dry, unrolled, stretched, mounted, assembled or otherwise ready to photograph and enter at the time of your appointment. VAC staff and volunteers will not offer any advice or critique of your art. Please decide ahead of time which pieces to submit and bring only the number of pieces you've registered for.
This service is a special benefit for VAC students, members and faculty. Participants receive no special consideration by the juror, just technical assistance entering the online competition. Entry and payment of entry fees are not a guarantee of acceptance. No refunds of either the Help Day registration fees or the call to entry fees.
Please reserve this opportunity for those who truly need technical assistance with entry. If you only require assistance with photography of your art, please let VAC know and we can arrange for such a service on another date. The service on December 29 is for entry to Identity: PLACES only; if it is successful, we will repeat the program for the Observation/Conservation call to entry on a later date.

Opportunities for exhibiting your art
Margaret "Peg" Bowen Gallery
Valley Art Center presents five exhibits annually in a professional, 1,000-square-foot gallery. Typically, at least two of these exhibits are open competitions for submissions from artists. The only nonprofit art gallery in the Village of Chagrin Falls, VAC has been presenting the original art of novice, emerging, and professional artists for 45 years. VAC's gallery call-to-entries are open to regional, national and international artists. The Annual Juried Art Exhibit CTE is open to artists living in a 250-mile radius of the Center. The Annual Student/Faculty Art Exhibit is noncompetitive and open to all students and instructors active at VAC within the previous two years. The Margaret "Peg" Bowen Gallery welcomes thousands of guests every year and is an excellent opportunity to share your work with an appreciative public.
Art by the Falls
Every June, the highly attended Art by the Falls outdoor show introduces the work of national artists and fine crafters to the suburbs of Cleveland. Founded over thirty years ago, the event draws 10,000 patrons every summer to Riverside Park in historic Chagrin Falls. The show features approximately 120 painters, potters, jewelers, wood workers, fiber artists and other fine craftspeople. An ideal setting for an outdoor festival, the village's popular Main Street overlooks two waterfalls and hosts a wealth of fine shops, galleries and restaurants.
Other Opportunities
Members of Valley Art Center are invited to submit work for consideration to display and sell in the Gift Shop. Our Gift Shop artists are local and are active members at VAC. Gift Shop artists may also be considered for exhibition in our outreach gallery at the Village Martini Bar. Every spring, VAC and Lowe's Greenhouses present the annual Early Bird Art and Craft Show. The one-day show and sale features approximately 30 fine artists and crafters in the beautiful setting of Lowe's Greenhouse's inspiring and spacious facility. Each artist is provided a table and chairs to set up a booth to sell their artwork.
Hall Gallery and Educational Annex
These two smaller exhibit spaces are programmed by VAC staff and the Gallery Committee. The Educational Annex is reserved for VAC instructors to highlight their teaching and art making. We welcome suggestions and proposals for the Hall Gallery but we generally reserve the space for opportunities identified by the Executive Director and Gallery Manager for pop-up exhibits that cannot be accommodated through our regular gallery programming.
