Become a Gallery Artist

We are always happy to welcome new artists to our gallery.  We accept artwork in all media, including fine art and heritage crafts. Many of our artists have a link to the Mathews area and live in the Tidewater region; however, any artist living and working in Virginia is eligible to exhibit in our gallery.

Artwork must be reviewed by our gallery team to be accepted into the gallery. To become a gallery artist, please complete an application and call 804.725.1278 or email Jennifer Schroeder, our Gallery Coordinator, at jenschroeder@bayschool-arts.com to make an appointment to bring in your work. Please do not walk-in, we do not review artwork without an appointment.  

We look forward to hearing from you!
