PONSHOP Studio is pleased to announce “The Art Attack Show”, a two-month juried exhibition featuring select artists that participated in the 2023 Art Attack event in downtown Fredericksburg.
“The Art Attack Show” will be a celebration of the city’s most popular annual art event and will showcase those artists that gave their “creative service” on that day. The exhibit and its opening receptions will provide the opportunity for artists to reconvene, network, and share stories from that day.
Calendar
Deadline for Submissions: Digital Submissions due before midnight, Friday, October 20 2023. Email no more than (2) JPEG submissions to: shop[at]ponshopstudio.com. Include Title, Medium, Dimension (Length x Width).

Submission Requirements: This exhibit is open exclusively to Art Attack 2023 participants and is limited to wall-hung (two-dimensional) artwork. Artwork does not have to be the work that was done during the Art Attack event. This is a “small works” show and we want to feature a good cross section of artists. Therefore, artwork submissions cannot exceed 18” width or 24” in height.
Entry Conditions: All artwork must be for sale. PONSHOP retains 45% of all sales, with an additional 5% going to the Art Attack Project. Should your artwork sell, artists will retain 50% of the total retail price, which will be paid within 15 days after the end of the sale month. All artwork must be equipped with a metal hanging wire secured to the back of the piece (no saw-tooth hangers). Please refer to our submission guidelines sheet.
Artists are responsible for acquiring insurance on their own artwork. Although PONSHOP will take great care in the hanging and display of artwork, the gallery will not be held responsible for items on exhibit. Artwork delivered that is not dry, of poor assembly, or is incomplete will NOT be accepted.
Entry Procedure: The entry fee is $20 which includes a $5 donation to Art Attack. Artists may submit up to (2) pieces for consideration.
Keep in mind that shipping to and from the gallery is the responsibility of the artist; if you ship your art to us, you must include a return shipping label or we will contact you after the exhibition to collect the cost of shipping.
Delivery: Artists are to complete the Entry Form and deliver work no later than Saturday, October 28. Work delivered past of this deadline will not be accepted. Artwork must include a label with the title, medium, artist’s name as you’d like it to be displayed, and the retail price for the art. Retail Price is the price the art will be listed to the public for sale, not the 50% consignment the artist receives if sold.
Artwork Pick-Up: Hand-delivered unsold artwork must be picked up between Tuesday, January 2 and Thursday, January 4. Artwork picked up after Saturday, January 6 will incur a storage fee of $10 per day. This will be enforced. All Artists will be notified via email regarding artwork sales.
