We are looking forward to multiple entries from our art enthusiasts, as they help the jury in making a sound decision and better assessing the artistic style, technique, and other important parameters. The jury will be evaluating the entire set of submissions in case of multiple entries.

Returning artists are always welcome to our international platform, as we aim to build a community where artists take the center stage in all our initiatives.
If you submit your work on materials other than stretched canvas, you will need to frame it for exhibition. Regarding prints, they should be matted, with backing boards, and sealed in clear plastic sleeves. If needed, we can handle the framing and presentation at a decent cost.
Creators are responsible for shipping & insurance of their original works. Once the winners are announced, we’ll share the packing and labeling instructions. Please note that size restrictions may apply due to limited wall space.
After the exhibition, artists can either have their unsold works returned to them at their own cost or leave them with us to be transported to our gallery storage in LA, USA. Artists would pay for the cost of transportation, though.
