Membership
Artists wishing to be considered for membership must submit an application form,
10 or more slides, or jpeg images on CD of his or her work, or link to
artist web site, and a resume and statement to be reviewed by the members. Applications
can be submitted at any time.
Associate Membership
This provides group shows to three artists with wall work and to three sculptors.
The gallery space can be arranged so that the work of each artist can be exhibited as a small solo show.
Members will be accepted through a review process.
The first six artists to sign up for this membership will have the opportunity to exhibit in 2010.
The cost of this membership is $1,600, to be paid in quarterly installments of $400 beginning on January 1, 2009.
Any artist joining after April 1, 2009 will pay all dues that would have accumulated since January 1, 2009.
Please contact Linda Handler, Director, at the Gallery for more information or see the application form.
Applications must include at least 10 slides or jpgs of recent work, a resume and an artist's statement.
There is no application fee and no initiation fee for associate membership.
Shared Membership
A limited shared membership (available on a trial basis 2009) due to extraordinary economic circumstances has been approved. Two members would split fees and all financial obligations, warranting half their exhibition space when scheduled. The two members would have one vote and share the gallery duties and responsibilities of a full member. A member could invite an artist who is not a member to apply and be considered for membership. With the approval of the gallery members, these two would share a membership. Shared membership entitles one of the two members to serve on the executive board, sharing the committee work as other members. (The two sharing the membership would decide which one of them would be willing to be nominated to serve on the Executive Board, and if elected, that person would have one full vote on the Board.) An active member can share with an active member, an in-active member with another an in-active member. Shared membership entitles participation and space allotment equal to that of one full member in gallery group shows. For each shared membership, one Initiation Fee will be required.
Shared membership requires attendance equal to that of full Active-membership. All are encouraged to attend all meetings. At least one of the two sharing a membership must be present at seven meetings in a year. If that minimum number were not reached, both shared members would be penalized, as a full member would be. (See Phoenix Gallery By-Laws).
In summation, all regulations, which apply to regular membership, will be in effect for shared membership.
