The Village Theatre and Art Gallery is hosting it’s 15th annual juried exhibition. The theme is Art in Miniature and submissions will be open on March 3 and closed on May 2. There is a $30 fee for entry. 

The Town invites artists to submit original miniature artworks. Various mediums will be accepted, such as paintings, drawings and sculptures, encouraging endless creativity in this captivating genre.

This exhibition will be up and on view from July 12 to September 19 with an opening reception on July 12. If accepted into the exhibition, artists will be notified by May 16 and artwork will need to arrive the week of July 7.

Miniature Size Requirements: Miniature paintings and sculptures are fine art on a small scale, with minute attention to detail, which can withstand close inspection or enlargement. Artwork must be 4"x6" or less. As a guideline (not a rule) for a general definition of small scale, a subject should be no larger than 1/6th of its actual size. For example, a human head is about 9 inches so the painted head should be no larger than 1.5 inches. Subjects too small for portrayal in 1/6th scale or non-representational work such as abstracts or surrealism may meet the spirit of miniature if the work meets the above definition of miniature art.

All mediums accepted except for photographic work, computer generated work and artwork created by photographic, digital, laser, giclee or A.I. techniques.

Original artwork only.
