The following are major art shows scheduled for the Main Gallery at Studio Place Arts (SPA) during 2010. See below for instructions on how to submit artwork to SPA for consideration. Contact SPA to obtain more information at (802) 479-7069.


Rock Solid 
Our 10th Annual Stone Show
This outstanding annual show showcases stone sculptures and assemblages by area artisans.  While the emphasis is sculptural works, the show includes a small number of paintings and other works that depict the beautiful qualities of stone.
Application Deadline:  August 16, 2010
Show Dates:  October 5 – November 6, 2010

Annual Members Show:
Celebrate at SPA!

Member artists of SPA are invited to share a grouping of their work for a major retail show during the holiday gift-giving season – our Annual Members Show called “Celebrate.”  A beautiful, diverse selection of fine art and crafts will be displayed creatively on all 3 floors of the SPA building.  There’s really nothing like it in central Vermont.

Mark Your Calendar
Help us plan for our Annual Members Show.  Contact SPA by October 8, 2010, if you are interested in showing a selection of your work in the show.  (Please Note:  Because of space limitations in the SPA galleries and very limited storage, we ask artisans to bring a small grouping of items at the beginning of the show.  SPA will contact artisans as inventories need to be replenished.)

The opening reception for the show will be on Saturday, November 20, 4-6 PM.  The first major drop-off time for our show is Monday, November 8 and Tuesday, November 9 (9AM-5PM).  Artwork received at this time will be displayed in the Main, Second, and Third Floor Galleries.  In early December, we will expand the show to include our first floor Classroom.

CELEBRATE!
Deadline:  October 8, 2010
Exhibit Dates:  Nov. 17-Dec. 31, 2010

The Dark Side
There is a dark side to almost everything. The idea of darkness and the dark side of the world we live in resonates in some way for nearly everyone.  We might think of the dark side with fear or anger or simply be brave enough to observe and reveal what often tries to stay hidden.  The beauty of the dark side and darkness will also be considered.  Multi-media invited.  (main floor gallery)

Application Deadline:  December 3, 2010 
Exhibit Dates:  January 18 – February 26, 2011

When No One is Looking
What do we do when no one is looking?  What do others do when they don’t think anyone is watching?  This multi media, group show will explore the idea of private and hidden moments, thoughts, deeds and dreams.  (second floor gallery) 

Application Deadline:  December 10, 2010
Exhibit Dates:  January 18 – February 26, 2011

Flying High
Look up – is it a bird, a plane, or …This is a multi-media show with artwork hanging or flying from the ceiling.  Also, there will be a variety of works on the walls that show flight:  airplanes, balloons, baseballs, stars, hawks, possibly certain super heroes, and more.  It’s liftoff time.  (Main Floor Gallery)

  January 21, 2011
Exhibit Dates:  March 8 – April 16, 2011
