HOW TO JOIN
Art Plus Gallery is a cooperative of artists representing a wide range of media, styles and levels of experience. Some of our members are well-known professionals with work in public and private collections around the country, others are talents new to the art scene. Regardless, all of our members share a variety of benefits. We:
We are limited by charter to a maximum of 25 members. As a slot becomes available, we consider other artists interested in joining. If Art Plus sounds like a good fit for you, here's the the process works.
1. Send information about yourself, your media of choice, and 2-3 jpg images of your work to Submit@artplusgallerypa.com.
2. If it looks like your media and the level/promise of your work might be a good fit, we will ask you to bring five samples of recent work to Art Plus Gallery and meet with our Submissions Director. We can also discuss questions you might have as well as current/potential openings in our membership, which is limited by charter to a maximum of 25 members.
3. Our Submission Director will review your work and tell you more about our cooperative. If it seems mutually desirable, s/he will agree on to present your work to the entire membership at a monthly meeting.
4. All members of our cooperative have an equal vote. A simple majority is required for approval.
If the membership is currently full, or if the medium (e.g. oil painting or photography) is fully represented, the applicant may be put on a waiting list, and accepted as a membership opening becomes available. There is no fee for applying for membership or being on our waiting list.

Some of our members are well-known professionals with work in public and private collections around the country, others are talents new to the art scene. Regardless, all of our members share a variety of benefits. We:
- Always have several pieces of work on display in the main gallery, in shows that change every two months. When a piece sells, the artist puts another in its place.
- Are each spotlighted at least once every three years, with a well-publicized “meet the artist” reception and room to showcase dozens of pieces in our Featured Gallery.
- Have the option to participate in solo, multi-artist and all-member exhibits at a variety of restaurants, clubs and other popular venues in the area.
- Have the option to display jewelry, cards, books and hand-crafted accessories and items in our gift shop.
- Give the gallery a 25% commission on sales (most galleries keep 30-50%)
- Share knowledge, techniques and camaraderie with peers.
- Learn the gallery business.
