The Covey Center for the Arts is unveiling an exciting new opportunity for all artists in and around Utah Valley.
The Upper Eccles Gallery will be available to display artwork where 100% of the profits go directly to the artists!
The guidelines are simple:
An artist will be given an 11’ section of the gallery wall, as well as 3’ of floor space to display any and all artwork. This includes: paintings, acrylics, watercolors, photography, 3D pieces, posters, etc.
The artwork will remain in the gallery for 1 month and will be featured as part of the Downtown Provo Art Stroll.
All pieces will be priced by the artist and all sales money will go back to the artist. Buyers will be allowed to take pieces when they are purchased and the artist will be notified of the sale promptly, and will have the opportunity to replace the sold piece with more artwork.
The Covey Center for the Arts will include all current artists on their website as well as in their weekly mail letters sent out to the citizens of Utah.
Any and all other advertising will be the responsibility of the artist and will not be provided or paid for by the Covey Center for the Arts
The cost of participation in this Art Sale is $100 for 1 month of display
A maximum of 4 artists per month will be allowed in the gallery
The Art Sale will run from the beginning of February until the end of July
