No Giclees or reproductions of original works will be accepted. Artists may submit up to 3 works for consideration for both the in-gallery exhibit and full virtual gallery of works on our website. All submissions will be considered. All styles and aesthetics are accepted, from traditional to abstract to contemporary. McCord Gallery selections are based on creativity, quality of artistry and originality as represented in the images submitted.
The McCord Gallery & Cultural Center is a non-profit art gallery open to everyone; as such, the content of submissions should be appropriate for all viewers.
