Does my artwork have to be made during a class or during studio access?
Not at all! Feel free to submit any piece whether you made it at PCA&M, at home, or even another studio.
I haven’t made anything new recently, can I submit an older piece?
We can’t resist a good classic! You can submit any piece as long as it was made from 2021 until now.
Does my work have to be for sale in the exhibition?
Only if you want it to be! We know you can’t always put a price on a piece, and we’re happy just to have the opportunity to exhibit your work.
I haven’t taken a class in a couple years, can I still submit my work?
We’re happy to accept work from any student who’s taken a class with us as far back as 2021.
Can I submit for the show if I just became a member?
Absolutely! This exhibition is open to all members whose membership is currently up to date.
How can I become a member?
You can sign up for a membership online.
I’d like to submit, but how do I know if my work is good enough to be shown?
