Submissions

Submissions for in-person exhibitions at our brick and mortar are closed at this time. We are booked through the end of 2024 if I am able to stay open (learn more about our fundraising efforts here).

However, we are currently accepting proposals for:

  • Online-only exhibitions

  • Unique or handmade items for our unconventionally curated gift shop. Think jewelry, small sculptures, ceramics, candles, home decor, functional art, buttons & enamel pins, patches, etc. We are not looking for more wall-hanging art at this time, submitting to the next call for art is how to get your foot in the door to exhibit your work here.

  • Zines and stickers for our monthly Patreon mailings (Yes, we have a small budget to pay you for them)

Please reach out via email to get the ball rolling and we can go from there!

Please DON’T just stop by during gallery hours to talk about your idea or show me a portfolio. Insisting that I look at your Instagram or photos of art on your phone is the same thing. I don’t know anyone who likes to be put on the spot, just don’t do it. I prefer to meet with artists and vendors by appointment during off days.

Please DO stop by the gallery and see what’s currently on the walls, it may not be your art but it's guaranteed to be worth your while. I’m always a bit surprised when a local artist pushes to show their work here but have yet to attend a single opening or ever step foot in the gallery.

Submitting your work to the group shows when there is a call for art is the best way to get your foot in the door for showing with Trash Lamb.

I recommend signing up for our email list if you’d like to be notified of the next open call. Social media is not the best these days when it comes to getting the word out (scroll to bottom of this page to sign up).

Thank you so much for wanting to be a part of our unconventionally curated universe!
