New Opportunities for Shoppers and Artists!
In addition to Allied Arts' eight main exhibits in 2011, the newly opened Art Boutique features local artists' creations on a rotating basis all year. Community members now have the opportunity to purchase more art for gifts or to keep and artists have more opportunities to share their work.
Regional artists and artisans are featured art in the Boutique, and their work covers many genres from painting to fiber, ceramics to wood carving, jewelry, art objects, and more. Prices range from as little as $5 to $250, meaning that everyone from the casual to the most discerning shopper will find perfect one-of-a-kind treasures.
The Boutique will continue to evolve and we welcome feedback from shoppers and artists in order to perfect this aspect of the gallery to best serve our community.

Boutique Schedule & How Artists Submit Work
We are especially interested in pieces priced from $5 to $250. Pieces over that price will certainly be considered, and we do have wall space for 2D art. The Gallery will continue to receive a 30% commission on marked prices. Eight (8) physical items are requested from each artist on the submission date. Items will be juried and you will be called to pick up any items that have not been selected. Decisions will be based on a combination of craftsmanship, sales, and retaining a good mix of media, price points, and artists.
Full submission details are in the Calls to Artists section of these pages - scroll down to "The Gift Boutique."
The current Boutique rotation ends December 15, 2011.
