Art Central in SLO is currently accepting art submissions for its latest exhibition, While We Sheltered. The gallery reopened on June 1, with an occupancy limited to five customers at a time, and the new group show is scheduled to run through July 31. While We Sheltered is the gallery’s first non-virtual exhibit since its closure in March due to statewide COVID-19 mitigation measures.
Applicants to the exhibit will not be charged an entry fee. Only artworks created after March 19, when shelter-in-place went into effect, will be accepted. Entry is limited to one piece per artist and works must be 16-by-20 inches or smaller.
Participating artists may drop off their submissions anytime during regular hours (Monday through Friday, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.). Saturday morning appointments at the gallery are offered to patrons as long as they book a reservation by 1 p.m. the Friday prior. Art Central will continue to accept artworks for the show through the end of its run (July 31) or until the gallery runs out of wall space.
