I'm interested in knowing if any art group or organization has a general policy about donations of art works for charitable fund-raising. I, and other artists that I know, are constantly being asked to donate works for charity events. Currently, I have three such requests pending. Some offer a percentage of the sale price, which is often a ridiculously low silent auction bid. Other offer a charitable receipt for the sale price. Basically, it ends up that the artist (often unconnected with the charity) is the only real contributor. It would be helpful if there was some "official" policy that might form the basis for our response.
Queen Gallery is seeking submissions for our upcoming group show, NOROUZ to celebrate the first day of spring and the beginning of the year in the Persian calendar.
Norouz, meaning “New Day” in Persian, is the traditional celebration of the New Year in many parts of the world, including Iran, Turkey, parts of Central Asia, South Asia, Northwestern China, the Crimea and some ethnic groups in Albania, Bosnia, Kosovo and the Republic of Macedonia.
Queen Gallery is delighted to host our annual group exhibition in celebration of Norouz.
We welcome all the artists to submit high resolution jpegs of their work for this years Norouz group show.
The deadline will be March 1st, 2017 when our curator will select the best work. Artist statements along with display-ready artwork will be required by March 11th, 2017 for those pieces selected.
A participation fee will be required of those selected artists in order to help pay for advertising. Participation fee is $60.00 (for first submission) + $5.00 (for each additional work). Artists are responsible for delivering and collecting their works from the gallery.
