Exhibition Opportunity:

Monroe Street Family Dental, located at 2702 Monroe Street, has just opened it's doors and would like to fill the office with artwork from local artists and students. MSFD is a small start-up practice built on community and environmental values.

We are most interested in wall hangings but also have space for sculpture and installations - two rooms are currently unoccupied which can function as gallery space. We can accommodate both large and small, around 15 pieces depending on size. We can make arrangement for interested buyers to contact you for buying and transactions or handle transactions for sold as priced transactions. Additionally, we expect to be future participants in gallery night in May 2010 and your work can be highlighted in newsletters with submitted bios. Please view our website for additional information about the practice: http://www.monroestreetfamilydental.com/

If you would be interested in having your artwork displayed on a rotating basis, please contact us for more information or to submit samples of your artwork.
