The theme, OPEN, invites artists of all mediums and subjects to submit their best work to be featured in our gallery and publication. Both realism and abstract art will be considered. Our gallery features contemporary art and the concept is considered in judging.

Overt Space Gallery + Gift is a vibrant and creative space for artists and makers, split between gallery and gift shop. Perfect for emerging and mid-career artists seeking places to share their work in a gallery setting with lots of foot traffic as well as a high conversion rate with online sales.

Winners(1st-3rd) will split cash prizes ranging from $500-1,000 - depending how many submissions we receive. Honorable mentions for 4th and 5th place. All accepted entries will be featured in a printed publication by the gallery and blog. Awarded artists will receive more space for interviews. All entries will have their name listed in our printed publication.
