Be a Part of the next Guild of Creative Art’s Online Art Galleries

The Guild of Creative Art will continue producing Art Galleries Online, a virtual exhibit of artwork created by our members. These online exhibitions will be presented in addition to our live shows in the Guild’s Gallery, and provide an opportunity to reach beyond our walls to a greater audience. If you are currently a paid up Guild member you may participate.

During the submission period for each issue, all active Guild members may submit one or two digital images of their artwork to be displayed on our online platform. Images for issues of Art Galleries Online will be collected during a specific submission period (as indicated on the registration form below). When a gallery has been presented on the Guild’s website, it will be announced to our Art News subscribers. (If not already subscribed, you may do so by clicking HERE. There is no cost to receive Art News.)

All entries submitted to Art Galleries Online must be for sale. The Guild’s commission on works that are sold through Art Galleries Online is 20%.

Click HERE to purchase artwork displayed in any edition of Art Galleries Online. Artwork must be purchased through the Guild. Delivery of purchased artwork will take place at the Guild.
