Jury Process
Juried Artist Application and Guidelines
Thank you for your interest in becoming a juried fine artist member at Broad Strokes Gallery (BSG). Our juried artist members have the opportunity to show their work at BSG exhibits and have a featured artist’s exhibition at BSG approximately once every two years.
Our mission is to promote and support the visual arts, provide art education opportunities for Pamlico County residents and promote the talents of local artists. We believe that art is a vital part of any healthy community. Your interest and application indicates that you wish to participate in Pamlico County’s creative community.
Broad Strokes Gallery is a retail gallery space which is part of the Pamlico Arts Council (PAC). Your work will be reviewed by a panel of three jurors, two artists who practice in a similar art medium and one from a different medium. The use of juries is a common practice in the visual arts. By utilizing this system, the work is viewed objectively by a number of artists and not subjected to the personal tastes of any one artist.
We use the jury system to ensure that the work displayed in our gallery/exhibit is of the highest quality in terms of concept, style, technical skill, and presentation. The panel will evaluate three pieces of physical work in each media category and up to twelve additional digital portfolio images.

E. Work should be “gallery ready,” meaning they are finished/framed as you intend to present them in an exhibition at the BSG
F. All work should be of original design, handmade or natural material, and execution. No kits. For example, in beaded jewelry, the beads should be handmade by the artist unless used in a detailed seed beaded application. No plastic or resin beads. Findings of fine metals (silver, gold or copper) only (no craft wire). Absolutely no resale.
2. Artist/Artwork information including all the following:
A. Artist’s biography
B. Artist’s CV/resume (do not include non-art related experience)

Evaluation Process

3.Presentation

Each anonymous juror will use a scale of 1 to 10 to evaluate the work in each of the preceding categories.

The scores you receive are totaled and divided by the number of jurors. An overall average
score of 5 in each category or better is required for acceptance to the gallery. Notification will be sent via e-mail or U.S. mail informing you of the jury’s decision.
