PRE-SHRUNK 2015

Well this is it! It’s officially time to announce our annual open call for submissions! Pre-Shrunk is a much loved annual group show that asks artists to create work on a surface measuring 4” x 5”. We encourage submissions from artists both established and emerging, created in the medium of their choosing.

Submission Guidelines:

- Works must be created on a surface that measures 4” x 5”. Pieces that

do not measure 4” x 5” will not be accepted.

- Artists can submit no more than five pieces.

- If works are on canvas, we ask that you do NOT attach a hanging

device (i.e.: wire or hooks – the gallery will take care of this for continuity)

- If you plan on working on paper, please mount your works

onto a sturdy 4” x 5” surface that can be hung on the wall.

- Submissions must be new, and not previously shown.

- Please include your name, phone number, email address, and list of

materials used along with your submission.
