VOLUNTEER COMMITMENT

Members manage all aspects of the gallery: Administration, maintenance, calendars, etc. Members are required to join a working committee. Digital skills are important, and members are required to attend an annual meeting in-person of by zoom.

EXHIBIT SCHEDULE

There are two separate exhibition spaces. During a 3-year membership cycle, a member is assigned a solo show once in each gallery. Shared memberships show together in one room. Each artist advertises, installs, and offers a reception as a personal expense. Oxbow also presents two group shows annually, and every member may participate. Other benefits are presence on the website, a key to the gallery, and address lists for regional publicity.
