We are currently preparing for our 42th Annual GALA Fine Art Auction, Saturday, March 7, 2020. GALA is the Quinlan Visual Arts Center’s signature fundraiser and sells out every year to discerning art collectors of Georgia. In fact, we have already sold out for 2020! GALA’S success significantly impacts the Quinlan’s ability to offer premier arts programming to our community. We have built a reputation of excellence by only presenting exceptional works for purchase to a growing audience of avid collectors. All proceeds benefit the Quinlan Visual Arts Center, whose mission is, Bringing visual arts to life, and to the life of the community through education, exhibition and engagement.
We are excited to be honoring Artist Dennis Campay as our 2020 Artist Guests of Honor. Again this year, a full color catalog selection of live auction items for GALA 2020 will be mailed to all ticket holders prior to the event, and all art entries will be juried with awards given.
The deadline for framed, ready to hang artwork is between January 9 – 15, 2020 (for catalog consideration.) Deadline to participate in the auction is February 15, 2020.
A panel of artists, curators and collectors will review GALA 2020 submissions and accept 100 pieces for the auction. It is suggested that artists who would like to be featured in the auction submit their best work and those that want the opportunity for catalog consideration submit by (Jan 15) to ensure that their work has the opportunity to be viewed by the entire panel. Panelists do consider the following in making their selection: overall artistic excellence, retail price point and whether the artist has selected a percentage of the sale or donated the submission to the organization.
Artists are our most significant supporters, and we especially value your participation.
Directing 100% of revenues from the sale of your artwork to the 2020 Quinlan GALA will truly make a huge impact on the event’s bottom line. Artists who make a 100% donation will receive a complimentary one-year Quinlan membership to keep or give to a friend. The artist whose piece garners the highest price at the auction will be offered gallery space at a future agreed upon date, for an exhibition. Works may be also be consigned and you can choose to receive between 10% and 40% of the sale. Art Entry Forms are attached.
