We seek a balance of professional artists, emerging artists, multi-cultural artists and amateur artists as well as children’s art and student work.

Openings
FAL will cover a modest opening (non-alcoholic punch and nibbles). For an $80 fee, FAL will organize a more elaborate opening. ($20 for special occasion permit, $30 for wine/beer, $30 for cheese/finger food). Anything beyond that is the responsibility of the artist(s) exhibiting.
Publicity
FAL will send out public service announcements, place notices in the Fredericton Arts Alliance Arts News, and on the FAL website. FAL will also list exhibitions in the arts calendars of the Daily Gleaner, Telegraph Journal and Acadie Nouvelle (provided translation can be arranged).
Posters and invitations are the responsibility of the exhibitor, and must be approved by FAL before distribution.
