I’m an Artist.
How do I get my work in the Arts Center?

Thanks for asking!

There are a couple of ways. One way is to enter your work in a community show. We do a call for artists a few times a year and our community shows are open to any area artist. All work displayed at the Center for the Arts must be family friendly.

If you're a professional artist and would like to be represented in our gallery year round, there is a jury process.

To be considered by our jury, you may submit 5 photographs of your current work (work completed within the past two years) and a short bio. We’d also like to see your artist statement if you have one. Please include pricing information for the work in your photographs. If you work in more than one medium, you will need to submit a separate packet for each medium.

Our jury will evaluate your work to see whether it is a good fit and in keeping with the Arts Center’s Mission and Vision. Another consideration is whether we are already at capacity for the kind of work you create, as we have limited space. 

The jury is comprised of 3 members and is top secret.

If you have questions or would like to submit work for our jury to consider, email

Or call 423-460-3313 or (423-957-6346 while we are closed for COVID)
