Artwork Requirements

This show is about displaying new and fresh work that has preferably been created within the last two years and has not been displayed in any previous WAC Gallery Shows. All works must be ready to hang in frames that are in good condition (no saw-tooth hangers). Gallery wrapped canvases with no visible staples and finished (painted) edges are allowed. Photography printed on metal with an attached hanger that is compatible with WAC's hanging system is also allowed.
