Exhibit your work

Exhibitions are mainly curated by invitation. However, unsolicited materials are reviewed and will be returned with the inclusion of a self-addressed stamped envelope. The gallery does not review artist websites, email attachments or portfolios in the presence of the artist. Please follow the submission guidelines provided here.

Call for entries

The Small Works Show is presented each year in the Mikhail Zakin Gallery. All artists with a past or present connection to New Jersey are invited to submit their work. This juried group exhibition features 2-D and 3-D works that are 18" or under in any dimension.

The juror for 2011 was Meredith Lippman, curator at the Brennan Gallery in Jersey City.

Scholarships

Scholarships are available for individuals who are in need of financial assistance. Please ask at the front desk for more information. It is important to note that scholarships are not guaranteed, as they are dependent on available funds and the number of requests we receive. Applications must be received at least 10 days prior to the start of the semester to be considered.

Volunteering

We love our volunteers! Volunteers are an integral part of the community at the Art School, and we are always happy to have their assistance. There are a variety of volunteer opportunities available throughout the year for people of all abilities. We can use your help with our mailings and special projects, at our famed Annual Pottery Show and Sale, and at our thrift shop in Westwood. No art experience is necessary, so please consider donating some of your time and energy. For more information, please contact Executive Director Maria Danziger at 201-767-7160 or maria@tasoc.org.

Internships

Occasionally, internship opportunities for high school or college students are available for community service credit. Please call Executive Director Maria Danziger at 201-767-7160 for more information.
