Art Submissions
Although the Carnegie Art Museum is pleased to have art and artists brought to our attention, we are not a retail art sales gallery and do not review unsolicited portfolios. There are two ways to make an artist’s work better known to us:
email us a link to a website
mail us a CD with only 4-6 low-res ( jpeg ) or a pdf of the art works
include identification information for each artwork (title, medium, year made, dimensions) and an artist’s resume.
Carnegie Art Museum
Art Submission
424 South C Street
Oxnard,CA 93030
Keep in mind that the Carnegie focuses on California art of high technical quality by artists with significant prior museum and/or major gallery representation that spans a minimum of three years of art production. Museum exhibits are scheduled 2-3 years in advance.
Due to the deluge of submissions and costs involved, absolutely NO emailed, mailed or hand-delivered materials will be returned with or without a stamped return envelop or over night shipping number.
NO unsolicited artwork may be “dropped off” at the Museum for review. Due to art insurance restrictions, such deliveries will be refused. The Museum is not responsible for any unsolicited art or submission materials left or delivered.
Having noted these restrictions which allow a small museum to better stretch its very limited resources, do be aware that we appreciate having our California art horizons broadened. Submitted website links and CDs are reviewed but in no specific time frame and in no way imply a Museum exhibit, collections or other commitment. No receipt of submission will be sent. We will contact you/the artist for more information, if an artist’s work is of future interest.
Thank you for your understanding of the measures required to handle the overwhelming number of requests received.
