Online Gallery Show
June 8 – August 1
In March, due to the Covid-19 emergency, we temporarily closed the Arts Council gallery in San Andreas just as we were getting ready for our Fins, Fur & Feathers: Animals in Art show. Unfortunately, we must still be closed as we wait for California’s reopening, and we are able to figure out how to open the gallery in a safe way for staff and visitors.
Artists and patrons told us that they were looking forward to Fins, Fur & Feathers. We’ve rescheduled the show, but since we don’t know when we can open the gallery, we’ve decided to have an online exhibition, and open an e-commerce shop to sell the artwork.
We will have a social media campaign as well as press releases to advertise the show.
If it becomes possible to open the gallery safely this summer, we will pivot to a physical gallery show.

ENTRY requirements
Please read entry requirements carefully
We will be accepting 1-2 pieces from each artist to a maximum of 30 pieces. Each artist may submit up to 2 pieces of art. Artwork can be of any media—paintings, drawings, collage, mosaic, jewelry, sculpture, or whatever you can think of, but it must be about animals.
All artwork MUST be available for sale throughout the entire show (June 8-August 1), and it must be present at the Arts Council Gallery. You can make an appointment to bring your artwork to the gallery on June 1-3 for curbside drop off, or make other arrangements for delivery. You MUST fill out an entry form before bringing your work in. They are available online here, or they will be available at the front doors of the gallery during drop off for you to complete outside. Please fill out the form completely.
For this show only, we will be reducing our commission fee. Artists will receive 80% of any online sales. We recommend artists price their work between $50 and $300 for the best chance of online sales.
Since we will be exhibiting and selling this work online, we require high quality pictures of the artwork.
