Call for Artists
Call for Artists: Community Gallery at Ground Up
We are seeking artists to create a community gallery to be established at Ground Up! This gallery will be a platform for artists to showcase their work and promote the local arts community.
Our gym is vibrant and dynamic, and we believe that adding a community gallery will add beauty to the facility for members and visitors. We are looking for artists who can create pieces that are visually engaging and can be displayed in a safe and appropriate manner.
The gallery will be open to a wide variety of artistic styles and mediums, including but not limited to paintings, drawings, and photography. We are particularly interested in works that are inspired by or related to climbing, outdoor adventure, and the natural world.
Selected artists will have their work prominently displayed in the gallery, with opportunities for sales to the community as well.
If you are an artist interested in showcasing your work in our Ground Up community gallery, please submit a proposal including your artistic vision, samples of your work, and a brief bio. We look forward to hearing from you and creating an exciting new space for local artists and climbing enthusiasts alike.
