Fenelon Station Gallery Guidelines

Quality of Work- Visual Arts

Paintings should be of high caliber and tasteful
All “prints” must be labeled as reproductions.
Framing must be of high quality (i.e. no chips, dents etc. and properly wired).
No work on canvas that is damaged will be accepted (i.e. torn).
Gallery quality canvases are preferred.
If the canvas is not framed, all sides must be painted.
Canvases with staples on the side must be framed.
Unframed originals/reproductions must be matted and presented in plastic sleeves.
Cards for sale must be presented in plastic sleeves.

Quality of Work- Other Media

All work must be of the quality standards of their respective Guilds (i.e. Pottery Guild, Wood Guild, etc.).
No product that is cracked, chipped or damaged in any way is allowed.
All vessels not food safe must be marked.

Labeling and Inventory

Tags labeling paintings should be no larger than business card size and placed at the lower right side of the painting. Labels should include: original medium/reproduction, artist’s name, price, title or inventory number with the artist’s initials (i.e. JT175)
Labels for structural and 3-dimentional work may be stickers or tie-on tags and should include: price, title or inventory number with the artist’s initials (i.e. JT175)
Should labels become faded or worn, they must be replaced.
It is the responsibility of the artist to submit an inventory list including all the labeling information for each item offered for sale.
Inventory lists will be filed in the Gallery Inventory Binder.
It is the responsibility of each artist to update his/her inventory list with additional/replacement product information.

In General

The Fenelon Station Gallery is not responsible for any damage or theft. It is the responsibility of each artist to carry theft and liability insurance.
Artists are expected to work the required number of days in the gallery as determined at the beginning of the season. If for any reason, a member is unable to gallery sit at a designated time, he/she must arrange for a substitute member as a replacement and inform the scheduler of the change.
Work from new applicants will be juried by a Jurying committee.
Work of a different medium, other than that which the member has been juried, must be approved before being allowed for sale. (i.e. If a painter is also producing sculptural work, the sculptural work must also be juried for acceptance.)
Member artists of the gallery, working together to produce a collaborative work of mixed media, may have the piece juried. Collaborative work with outside artists must be accepted by jury/executive members.
No reduced priced materials are allowed.
Removing work for shows/other venues, without replacements, is strictly prohibited. Replacement product is acceptable, with same size and quality only.
To avoid overcrowding, new work is only to be added when a member’s work is sold, or a request is made for additional work.

Sales and Reimbursement

Our current rate of commission is 10%, but we reserve the right to change at our discretion.
Reimbursement for sales will be issued twice; one payment midway through the season and one at the end of the season.

Volunteer Commitment

All artists will be asked to help with some of the setup at the beginning of the season.
Will be required to participate in at least one of the operational functions: executive positions, advertising, scheduling, jury, etc.
Provide an artist blog, images and an updated artist bio to be used on the Gallery’s social media.
