Rental Sales Gallery, Portland Art Museum is pleased to invite our Member Artists to submit to the upcoming RSG Member Artists Spring Show 2026, which will open to the public at the Gallery on Friday, April 24th 2026.
Eligibility: Rental Sales Gallery Member Artists only.
Show Details: Please submit 3 original works for our Spring Show, which opens on Friday, April 24th. Digital images need not include the frame unless you feel it enhances the overall presentation, but all works must be ready to hang for the show.
Calendar: Submissions can be made through the period Monday, February 23rd - Sunday, March 8th. The deadline is at midnight. Notification of works accepted will occur on Wednesday, March 18th. Ready to display artworks (framed, mounted etc.) are to be delivered to the Gallery by Thursday, April 16th. Any pieces delivered after this date may not be included in the initial hang for the opening event on Friday, April 24th, 4-7pm. The show will run until the end of May 2026
Submissions: Submissions are made through OnlineJuriedShows. Log in and click Enter This Show above to begin your submissions. A link will be sent out the day before the submissions process opens. If you have any issues uploading your pieces or are dealing with website glitches, please contact Randi Sugarman at onlinejuriedshows@gmail.com or 888-666-1351 for assistance.
Images: Files must be jpg, under 4 MB, and in sRGB colorspace. For best results, image files should be 1920 pixels on the longest side (min 800) @ 72 dpi. Please note: if you do not see your images on the screen after completing your upload, during your review, and on your receipt, the upload was not successful. Please contact Randi Sugarman at the email address/phone number above if you do not see your images on the screen and they do not appear on your receipt.
Submission Fee: After careful consideration, we will continue to require that all artists pay a submission fee of $10 to submit to this and future Member Artist Shows. This will not only allow RSG to better cover the costs of managing shows like this, but it is also a more equitable way of doing this than accepting donations as we have done previously. We are grateful for your understanding.
The payment option will appear at the end of the submission process. After you review your entries you'll be taken to the fee page to make the payment. The receipt will show all of your entries and your completed payment. If your receipt shows anything other than credit card or paypal (payment not complete, for example) your payment did not go through. Please contact onlinejuriedshows@gmail.com if you have any questions.
Jurors: As with previous Shows, the jury is composed of the Head of the Rental Sales Gallery, Gallery Supervisor, experienced Rental Sales Gallery volunteers and Member Artists.
Categories: Most mediums are accepted, excepting jewelry, fragile glass and unframed tapestry. The Gallery cannot accommodate large framed glass pieces (larger than 32” on one side), works larger than 7' on one side or works 6' x 6' or larger on both sides. The Gallery is looking for various sized works. Up to 3 works can be submitted and 1-2 works accepted.
Sales: Rental Sales Gallery will take 50% of the work’s value for a sale and 50% of the rental fee, as per the updated 2025 artist agreement.
