Dear Artists & Arts Organizations,
GIFTS OF ART at the University of Michigan Health System is currently accepting proposals for our September 2011 through August 2012 exhibit year. One of the first and most comprehensive arts in healthcare programs nationwide, Gifts of Art brings the world of art & music to the University of Michigan Health System.
Our nine galleries display 50 exhibits a year. They include 2-D and 3-D spaces that are viewed by approximately 10,000 people a day. This makes our galleries some of the most widely visited indoor, non-museum exhibit spaces in the state.
Entry Requirements
Selections will be made from online submissions or submissions by mail. Individual artists must provide a minimum of 12 professional quality images. Group shows should provide a minimum of 24 images. Submitted images must reflect the proposed exhibit. In selecting artwork, Gifts of Art's primary mission is to create a more comfortable and calming atmosphere within the often stressful environment of a hospital and to provide a positive distraction for our patients, visitors and staff.
Online Submissions
Artists can complete the Exhibit Proposal Form online at www.med.umich.edu/goa and directly upload your files.
Submissions by Mail
Digital images of your work can be submitted on a CD-R as JPG files. JPGs must be 300 dpi and sized to approximately 3 x 5 inches. Emailed JPG images or in-person submissions will NOT be considered.
Submissions must be received or uploaded by May 31, 2011.
Final notifications will be sent by August 1, 2011.
