Welcome to the Greater Cincinnati Exhibition Opportunities Guide 2009

Welcome to the Greater Cincinnati Exhibition Opportunities Guide 2009 –an encyclopedia of venues and contact information for Cincinnati-area artists seeking a first show or continuing an established exhibition record. With nearly 200 listings, the Guide is not only a directory of places to show work locally and regionally, it's also the source for Cincinnati's vibrant arts scene. So don't miss out on your opportunities–get to it and participate!

Artist Tips

Visit some of the listings in this guide first to determine which venues are the best match for you. Alternative spaces are a good place to begin. Most commercial galleries expect an established body of work and an exhibition history before representing an artist.

Contact venues first to ask about selection procedures:
  • Do not expect anyone to review your work without an appointment. Most venues review digital images or prints first–not actual work.
When sending your proposal:
  • For electronic entries, request the proper digital format in advance.
  • Label each submission on the disc with your name, title, date, media and dimensions.
  • Include an SASE to ensure your materials will be returned or indicate they may be discarded.
  • Track responses and returns to better strategize your efforts.
Feel free to ask:
  • Is there a fee for applications and use of the space?
  • Are there security measures, climate control, insurance coverage, etc.?
  • Do they offer honorariums or can they assist with the budget?
  • When can you expect a reply or return of your materials?

And finally, rejection is a routine part of the application process. Don't get discouraged. Acceptances and rejections are based on a wide range of criteria upon which you have no control.

Did we miss you? The Cincinnati arts scene is constantly evolving, so please help us stay up-to-date. If your organization would like to be added to this guide, or if you have revisions to a current entry, please e-mail westonartgallery@cincinnatiarts.org.
