Exhibition Submissions

Submissions:

Artists at all stages of their careers are encouraged to submit proposals for future exhibitions at the Turchin Center for the Visual Arts.

 

Benefits of Exhibiting at the Turchin Center: 

The staff at the Turchin Center is committed to supporting artists in a variety of ways. Exhibiting artists receive complimentary round-trip shipping of artwork to and from the Turchin Center; wall-to-wall insurance coverage for all artworks; promotion and publicity through the center’s website, social media, and other marketing platforms; a public reception, a comprehensive honorarium for public presentations in conjunction with their exhibit that can include but is not limited to: presentations focusing on the artist and their artwork, scheduled in the TCVA lecture hall, online, or in a hybrid format; gallery talk/tours; panel presentations; and class visits with Appalachian State University faculty and students. Sales of artwork are offered as a courtesy to exhibiting artists. Additional opportunities for educational workshops may be possible. Workshop honoraria are negotiated separately, depending on the interests of the exhibiting artist and the center’s education area.
