DEADLINE: SATURDAY, JUNE 27

Landscape by Henri-Edmond Cross, 1904

For this year’s summertime members’ exhibition, Yukon Art Society Members are invited to submit works that showcase their favourite things about summer. Landscapes, florals, animals, and summer-inspired colours are all welcome!

This exhibition will be on view in both the Focus and Edge galleries from July 3 - August 1.

Artists are invited to bring the following:

Two-Dimensional/Wall Hanging Work
One large
piece (bigger than 20”x20”)
Up to two medium pieces (10”x10” - 20”x20”)
Up to three pieces smaller than 10”x10”

Three-Dimensional Work
Up to two large pieces (must be able to fit on a plinth, max. 2’x2’)
Up to three small pieces (ie. cups, bowls, jewellery, clothing items)

If you’re unsure if your piece would fit the theme or size requirements, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

The deadline to submit work for this exhibition is Saturday, June 27. Pieces must be at the gallery on or before this date to be included in the exhibition. All work will be reviewed by the curator before display to ensure it meets all our display guidelines and is ready to be hung.

All work intended to be hung on the wall must be framed, mounted on a panel, or have appropriate hanging hardware. Loose prints, paintings etc. will not be accepted. If your piece has special hanging instructions, please include them in your form submission.

All work must be available for sale and purchases will leave the gallery at the end of the exhibition if sold. When pricing your work, please note that the Yukon Art Society retains a 35% commission on all artwork sales. The curator reserves the right to re-price pieces that are not in line with market value and pricing.

Please ensure your work is labelled, including title, price, artist name and medium. Please fill out the following form with information about your pieces here: Exhibition Submission Form.
