Rosewood Student Gallery

Open to all 2D artists!

The Rosewood Student Gallery was created in 2006 in order to showcase the artwork of the Rosewood students, instructors and visiting artists.  The Rosewood Student Gallery is located in the Rosewood Arts Centre lobby and features beautiful dark brick walls.  The space can hold up to ten 2D pieces from hanging wire and hooks.  The Rosewood Gallery Coordinator will hang the show or assist the artist with the installation.  Artists are responsible for any tags or accompanying materials and sales of the artwork.  The Gallery does not take a commission nor is the work insured while on display.  This is a great opportunity for local artists to showcase their work in front of a new group of patrons.  Since the gallery is located in a central meeting area, we are not able to display work that contains profanity or nudity.  Please contact the Rosewood Gallery Coordinator for more information.
