Artist Gallery

The Under the Umbrella Artist Gallery is open only to local LGBTQIA2S+ artists.

​

The artist gallery is primarily an opportunity to spotlight the work of local queer artists, while providing a modest revenue stream to keep the bookstore profitable and sustainable. Our commission fee is 30%, meaning artists retain 70% of the sale. Artists set the price of their work, and may adjust their normal rate to accommodate our commission.

​

At this time, we can only accept 2D artwork, and all artwork must be installation ready.  

​

There is no deadline to apply, but we review applications in February, May, August, and November for artwork to be displayed January-March, April-June, July-September, and October-December. 

 

Before applying, please be prepared to include the following information:

• Name*, email, and professional Instagram, portfolio, website, etc.

• 5-10 sentence artist statement, and an explanation of why you think your artwork is a good fit for Under the Umbrella's gallery.

• 5-10 images of your artwork, as well as descriptions.

 

*Legal name may be required for payment, but chosen names will always be used and respected.
