Annual Members' Art Exhibit

We invite all those attending the conference* to participate in a special Members' Exhibit. This will be in place of the traditional Member’s Exhibit. We are asking members who will be attending the conference to submit artwork that will be sold to benefit the NYSATA Scholarship Fund.

• Modeled after regional 6”x6” Exhibits around the state, all 2D entries must be 10”x10” unframed/unmatted works of art. 3-D entries must be 10”x10”x10”. Unframed, stretched canvas is permitted. These smaller, easier to transport       works of art should facilitate greater participation.
• The work will be hung anonymously (artists are asked to sign the back or we will cover the signature with a post-it).
• There will be no fee to participate and all conference attendees are eligible to submit up to 2 pieces of quality work.
• The work will be sold for a flat $20 each on Saturday afternoon and throughout the evening.
• All exhibit participants will have first choice for purchasing the work during a designated time. Other attendees will have an opportunity to purchase the work after that time.
• As with previous Member’s Exhibits there will be prizes awarded for excellence. The expectation is that the work submitted to this special exhibit will be equal in quality to the work exhibited at previous conferences.
• Contributions will be tax deductible as the proceeds will go to the scholarship fund. Receipts will be available.
• All unsold work will be returned to the artist/member and must be picked up after the exhibit is over.

If you are not attending the conference, Regions will be able to submit a limited number of additional works of art from members. Contact your Region Chair for details.

With plenty of lead time, we hope you will consider creating art work for this special exhibit. This is a great opportunity for regions to offer a local workshop or event to connect with your fellow NYSATA community, create art, and nurture the artist/educator within.
