RAA hangs new exhibit of member artwork at Gateway

Rossmoor Art Association (RAA) members are invited to submit up to three pieces of
their current artwork for exhibit and sale at Gateway from October 5, 2019 to February 2,
2020.
​
New works will be taken in from 10 a.m. until noon in the Oak Room at Gateway on
Sunday, October 5. . Members who currently have artwork hanging at Gateway are asked to
pick up their pieces during the same hours. Those who cannot pick up their own work at
that time should make arrangements with a friend to do so.

Paintings and drawings in all media are welcome for the Fall exhibit. The preferred size
for artwork is between 14 by 18 inches and 48 by 50 inches. Images of nudes or religious
icons will not be accepted.

Entry forms for the Gateway exhibit are available online at www.rossmoorart.com or
in Art Studio I. Artists should complete all paperwork before bringing their artwork to
Gateway.

Identification labels must be affixed to the back of each painting. Refer to the RAA
exhibit guidelines posted on the Art Studio bulletin board, on page 8 of the membership
directory, and online at www.rossmoorart.com.

Artwork on paper should be presented in simple, gallery-type framing. When mats are
used, they should be neutral in color and proportionally sized. Paintings requiring surface
protection should be covered with acrylic and not glass.

Work on canvas may be framed or unframed, but unframed work should be finished on
all sides to harmonize with the work.

Neatly secured wiring is required on all pieces—no saw tooth hangers. For guidance,
see the RAA membership directory or the RAA website, www.rossmoorart.com , under
exhibits.

Anyone submitting artwork must live in Rossmoor and be a current member of RAA.
Membership applications are available online at www.rossmoorart.com or in Art Studio 1.
​
Annual dues are $10. Checks should be made payable to RAA and sent to 1001 Golden
Rain Road or placed in the Art Association mailbox in the Gateway Administration office.
There is no other charge for members to exhibit artwork.
