About Us
We support local artists in accordance with our mission.
We have a jury selection process to ensure high quality and diversity of our show. Once we accept an artist through our jury process, artists pay a $35 entry fee for each show they participate in, and Gallery at First UU earns one third of all sales.
Our artists drop off and pick up their art (and a check for sold items), while we do the rest in terms of hanging, display, sales, etc.
Jury Selection Process
Please apply here before April 30th with quality images of your work.
The photos should be representative of your work, but need not be of the work you will be submitting.
Returning artists do not need to reapply, unless they are using a new medium.
Payment
Payment of artist fees due by 8/30/2024 are handled in one of two ways.
1-Online via a PayPal invoice payment link that you will receive on Tuesday or Saturday following the day the Intent Form was submitted. The link will be sent by email address,
Gallery at First UU dot rva at gmail dot com
2-Pay by check written to First UU and mailed to 1000 Blanton Avenue, Richmond, VA 23221.
