The Tulsa Artists’ Coalition is now accepting artist submissions / proposals for TAC Gallery's 2024-2025 season.

The TAC Gallery hosts a new exhibition each calendar month.

Prospective artists may submit proposals for individual artist shows or collaborative efforts with other artists. Submissions are also open to those who would like to curate a group show, revolving around a theme. Submissions in all media / disciplines are eligible, subject to the physical constraints of the gallery space.

  
**Gallery Specifications:**

The TAC Gallery is located at 9 East Reconciliation Way (formerly Brady), in the heart of The Tulsa Arts District, and has 24' running feet of exposure to the street. The main two exhibition walls are 24' long and can accommodate up to 11' vertical. A convex rear wall is traditionally used for signage. Lighting consists of a suspended track.

Door clearance: Two doors with an opening of 78" high x 60" wide. 

  
**Artist Responsibilities**

Exhibiting artists are responsible for:

* Providing final artist/show statement and media promotional photos two months before opening day.
* Providing final price list for show one week before opening day.
* Delivery of artwork to the TAC Gallery at the agreed-upon date. Artist is responsible for all shipping costs to and from TAC Gallery. Additionally, TAC does not cover shipping costs on purchased works. The artist is responsible for negotiating any such arrangements with the buyer.
* Cost of any “additional” exhibition expenses requested by the artist over and above what TAC has committed to provide (see “Exhibition Costs” above).
* Partial or full show installation. TAC will provide volunteer assistance.
* Opening attendance and gallery sitting for in-town artists.
* Other Sales: Artists wishing to sell “extras” during the show, such as prints, books or other items, must seek approval from TAC prior to opening day and TAC will be entitled to a commission on all such sales. As a practice, TAC discourages the selling of prints and other items, as this may detract from sales of the artist’s original art and such items are generally more susceptible to theft (intentional or otherwise). TAC cannot be responsible for ensuring these items are not removed from the gallery and will not compensate the artist for any missing items. TAC may also decline to allow such sales if the presence of these items distracts from the overall aesthetic of the exhibition.
* Insurance / Liability: The artist is responsible for safe delivery and return of work. TAC will do all it can to maintain the safety of the art while on exhibit, but TAC does not assume responsibility for any damage that might occur. TAC DOES NOT CARRY INSURANCE THAT WOULD COVER DAMAGE TO OR THEFT OF ARTWORK. Artists are encouraged to obtain their own insurance coverage.
* Acknowledgement: By submitting to TAC, the Artist acknowledges acceptance of all terms of exhibition contained herein.

**TAC will provide:**

* Installation and Teardown: TAC will assist in the installation and de-installation of the exhibitions.
* Artist Reception: TAC will host a reception for the artist, typically on the first Friday of the month, in conjunction with The Tulsa Arts District's _First Friday Art Crawl_.
* Exhibition Costs: Thanks to the generous support of our members and donors, TAC has historically been able to absorb most of the costs of the exhibitions, including promotion and opening night expenses. Should funding levels decline, the artist may be asked to share in these costs.
* Promotion: TAC will provide images and press releases to local and statewide media outlets and promote the show via our website, eNews and, social media.
* Gallery Staffing: Our volunteers will “gallery sit” throughout the duration of the show. Normal gallery hours are Friday from 6-9 pm and Saturday from noon-5pm. Artists are encouraged to sit the gallery, as our experience has been that work is more likely to sell when the artist is in attendance. Gallery hours may be extended beyond those hours listed above at the request of the exhibiting artist, providing there is sufficient volunteer staffing or artist commitment to cover the additional hours.
* Commission: TAC retains a 35% commission on all art sales (30% if the artist is a TAC member).
