We ask that each proposal include:   * 10-20 slides (preferred) or a CD of your work   *  a resume   *  an artist statement   *  a history of your past exhibits   *  a schedule of your future exhibits in and around Columbus   *  other documentation that will hlep us know you and your work.

We make exhibit choices based on several factors:

* Appropriateness for our public facility and gallery space.    * Quality of artistic expression and level of execution of the medium.    * Assessment of whether your work somehow enriches our audience and makes an impact.    * How your work is different from exhibits we have shown in the past.    * Where you have shown or will be showing your work in the Columbus area.    * Last (and least) is whether your work is sellable - Will it benefit the CAC in both showing       good work and  bringing in revenue?

Currently, we are reviewing proposals already submitted for our 2009 exhibit year. You are welcome to send your proposal but it must be received immediately. Keep in mind that what you send for review is the artwork that you must exhibit. You cannot be accepted for one body of work and then exhibit another without a second review and approval.

Send all proposals to: The Cultural Arts Center Exhibit Proposals Jennifer Johnson 139 West Main Street Columbus, OH 43215 For more information, contact: Jennifer Johnson, Arts Administrator 614-645-7514 jljohnson@columbus.gov
