Art Shows

VECCA valley elements

VECCA’s Gallery hosts three exhibitions at a time, as well as shows at Shenandoah Memorial Hospital and Muse Vineyards.

We have Judged Shows which change every three to four months, a featured Artist of the Month who has a whole wall to themselves for a month, and our Exhibtition Artists, who keep our gallery filled with art year round.

 

We are still remodeling the website! Watch this space for more information on submitting art to VECCA, or email us at VECCArts@gmail.com for questions.

The Space

All AOM artists use this as the main space for exhibiting their artwork. There is a shelf that allows for business cards, an artist bio with show description, and a sign-in book for visitors. If you have notecards or small artwork on easels, this space can also be used for those creations. In addition, VECCA offers an art rack that can be used for prints.

In addition to the main wall space, VECCA also offers the window shelf, two large easels that stand in the window cavity, and the window wall for use by the AOM artists. Measurements are provided above. AOM artists are also invited to use VECCA’s easels or bring their own, as well as to incorporate unique or seasonal window display items (such as colorful scarves or media-related items that would be on exhibition throughout the AOM month chosen).

If you have further questions about exhibiting as an Artist of the Month at VECCA, please email VECCArts@gmail.com. We strongly encourage artists to visit our gallery space prior to their show to get an in person feel for the space.
