Community Sites PDF Print E-mail

About the Community Sites Program: The Community Sites Program is sponsored by the Pacific Art League.This program provides opportunities for artist members to show their work in local venues for a two months period. Artists must pass jurying for Community Sites before they are eligible to participate. If you are interested in Community Sites, please contact Ann Taylor at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it or call the office.


The purpose of jurying is to be sure that you know how to select and hang a unified art show. You should submit five works in the same medium and the same style. They should be framed, wired, and ready to hang (except that works on canvas need not be framed if the edges are painted or otherwise finished). Be sure to review the complete Guidelines before submitting your work for jurying. When you have passed jurying, you will be added to the list of juried artists in your medium. If you wish to exhibit work in another medium, you need to be juried in that medium as well.

Note: After you have had three Community Sites shows, you are eligible to be juried for a Norton Studio exhibit.

Signing Up for an Exhibit

Signups for Community Site shows take place according to schedule. With a few exceptions, the shows are scheduled for two-month periods. Not all sites are filled at the reception, however, and some artists may have to cancel during the year.  if you are interested in a show at a particular site, contact the Site Coordinator to schedule a show or be put on the waiting list.

We ask that you sign up for only one show in each two-month period. Once you have exhibited at a given site, you may not exhibit again at that site for two years.

Hanging Your Show

About a month before your exhibit is due to be hung, your Site Coordinator will mail you a packet of information about it. It is your responsibility to contact the artist who precedes you at the site, as well as the Site Contact, to arrange a time to hang your work. It's important that the site not be left with bare walls for more than a few hours! If you have any problems with hanging or removing your exhibit on time, please contact the Site Coordinator immediately.

You will receive a form to list the works you are exhibiting; be sure to include a price for each work. A copy of this form should be left at the site, and another copy sent to Pacific Art League. Your exhibit will be listed on this webpage, and you are free to publicize it yourself in any way you choose. However, you should not put your phone number on any materials you leave at the site. If someone wants to buy a work from your exhibit, they should contact the Art League, which will handle the sale and retain a 40% commission.
