Info on gallery space at Pi:
Pi is a queer and artist friendly space – which means that Pi is providing space in which artists have the opportunity to show their work to a larger viewing audience. Because Pi believes in supporting the works of local artists and understands how difficult it is for artists to make a living off of art – Pi will not charge any kind of commission for work sold.
Art is shown on a 6 week rotation.
Pi has a non-discriminatory policy in terms of selection – no preference is given to queer artists but artists must be queer friendly.
What we are looking for:
- Original work that demonstrates a high level of skill/talent/thought by undiscovered and established visual artists.
- Painting, drawing, printmaking, fine art and documentary photography, batik, fashion, and installation art that is small enough to be hung on the walls.
- Outsider art

- In general the following kinds of work will not be considered: magazine collages, mainstream commercial photography, art class projects, and craft fair bric a brac. * There are exceptions to every rule.
