ELIGIBILITY:

Only original artwork is eligible for exhibition - such as painting, drawing, photography, collage, sculptural wall works, and traditional graphics. Traditional graphic processes such as signed limited-edition lithographs, etchings and silkscreens are eligible. Signed photo-offset lithographic prints will not be considered for exhibition.

The City's Artwork Selection Committee reserves the right to make all decisions concerning the installation of the exhibition and the placement of all works. The City's Artwork Selection Committee and/or the City Commission shall have final authority as to the selection, placement, duration, and number of works placed on exhibition at City Hall.

DURATION OF EXHIBITIONS:

Exhibitions will change approximately four times a year, with the duration of each exhibition approximately 10-12 weeks.

SECURITY: 

All artists whose works are accepted for exhibition will be required to sign a “City of Hollywood Artwork and Photography Display Release and Hold Harmless” Agreement. All works will be displayed on adjustable vertical hanging rod systems which have a security locking device. The Artwork Selection Committee and the City of Hollywood will exercise every care in the handling and securing of your work.
