PhotoWorks

NorthWest

Umpqua Valley Arts Center   /   Deadline: 02/21/14

Juror: Holly Andres
Holly Andres has commercial representation through Hello Artists, and gallery representation through Robert Mann Gallery (New York City), Charles A. Hartman Fine Art (Portland), Jackson Fine Art (Atlanta), Robert Koch Gallery (San Francisco).

Umpqua Valley Arts Center established the ArtWorks and PhotoWorks NorthWest (formerly named "Hundred Valleys") exhibition programs in 2007 to feature a juried, public archive of original works by contemporary artists based in the region. The ArtWorks and PhotoWorks NorthWest programs have quickly become a favorite aspect of Umpqua Valley Arts Center's ongoing programming. UVAA expanded the geographic scope of the ArtWorks and PhotoWorks NorthWest program to include regional artists.

Non-refundable $30 fee for 13 artwork entries. (Checks payable to UVAA)
