Call for Entries

All entries submitted to Frederick Gallery exhibitions must be original and completed within the last two years. The two year limitation encourages and promotes entering new work that is fresh to our viewing public. Original means that the work is the creation of the artist and is not a copy or version of another person’s photo or artwork. Artists using reference materials should use only their own photos and sketches. The appropriation of images may be an infringement of copyright laws and illegal, as well as unacceptable in our gallery. If an artist is using borrowed images (appropriation of another’s work), the work must be substantially altered in order to be considered original and may require written consent.

Works created in classes or workshops are acceptable if created free from instructor manipulation and are not a result of copying a class/instructor exemplar. Individually created set-ups and original viewpoints are essential to originality. Please contact the Curator if you have questions.

Collaborative Works

Entries created by more than one artist are welcome. If all contributing artists are FCCA members, then the entry qualifies for the member entry fee. If contributing artists are a combination of member and non-member artists, then the non-member fee applies.
