If you choose to enter your art work in our Show then you will need to follow this procedure and agree to the Terms and Conditions for Entry and Sales.

The submission, entry and show procedure will follow these stages:

1. Initial Submission
Submission is by invitation only. Submit your work and Entry payment(s) via the Gallery 247 online system before midnight on Friday 19th of June 2026. Quality colour images of the work in its entirety need to be included. Incomplete applications will not be considered. If there is a significant difference between the initial submitted image and the actual work the work will not be exhibited.

2. Review and Pre-Selection
After the closing date all submissions will be reviewed and assessed by a Pre-Selection Panel.

3. Acceptance Notification
Artists whose works are selected for exhibition will be notified via email or SMS using the online system and invited to exhibit at the Show. Artists must notify the Organisers if the work is no longer available for the Show. Withdrawn works may be substituted at the discretion of the Organisers.

4. Delivery
Artists or their agents must deliver all exhibits for the physical Art Show to the The Stadium, Derinya Primary School, 119 Overport Road, Frankston South VIC 3199 as per the Key Dates. Any damage or loss of any exhibit howsoever and whenever whilst in transit, in storage or otherwise shall be the sole responsibility of the exhibitor.

The Committee will take every care of exhibits but does not accept any responsibility for any such damage or loss and advises exhibitors to insure against damage or loss.  If the exhibitor authorises an agent to deliver or collect unsold exhibits this authority must be in writing addressed to the DACE Art Show 2026, signed by the exhibitor and contain the specimen signature of the agent.

5. Sales Notifications
During the Show you will be notified via the online system if your artwork sells. A red dot will be placed on the item in the physical Art Show.
