About the Exhibition
TVAST is a fine art event. The majority of your exhibition space should feature original fine art for display or sale. Ceramics, textiles, and jewelry are considered fine art. A limited selection of merchandise derived from your original artwork, such as greeting cards, mugs, or scarves, is permitted.
Venue Information
Participating artists are responsible for arranging their own exhibition locations. You may exhibit at your own studio, a private venue, or a participating group venue.
Joining a Group Venue: Please contact the venue coordinator before registering to confirm availability, eligibility, and any required verification code. Some venues may require membership in a local art organization or charge additional fees.
Hosting at a Private Venue: Please confirm your arrangements with the property owner or host before registering. You will need to provide the venue name and address during registration.
2027 participating venue details will be announced as confirmed.
