We at Uncommon Grounds value each and every artist we partner with. For 2022 we are partnering with Saratoga Arts to support our art shows through the Art in Public Places Program, but more importantly to help give artists additional exposure through the many Saratoga Arts’ channels that result in your art being seen and appreciated by even more people!
Uncommon Grounds wants to keep in touch with each of you regardless if you end up exhibiting through SA. Please fill out the information above so we can keep open communication about upcoming initiatives Uncommon Grounds is working on for and with artists… in addition to below. Thank you and we look forward to the continued partnership!
Saratoga Arts in its 35 years has brought the arts to over 1,000,000 people through its programs and provided performing and visual artists opportunities to earn over $3,000,000 in art sales and performance fees and over $100,000 in grants distributed directly to artists.
Art in Public Places is a Member-Exclusive program facilitated by Saratoga Arts. However, since you sent in your exhibition inquiry before this partnership was officially established, it is not required that you become a member of Saratoga Arts to apply to exhibit through Art in Public Places in 2022 BUT Uncommon Grounds has negotiated a discounted rate for all interested exhibiting artists of $35 (normally $50) for an annual individual membership.
Should you wish to take advantage of this offer, it entitles the exhibiting artist to reach a broader audience through extensive advertising and social media engagement, participation in other annual exhibitions at the Arts Center Gallery, eligibility to sell work in the gift shop at 320 Broadway and our online store, participate in one on one grant writing workshops and applications seminars for the annual NYSCA individual direct artists grant awards, discounts to all programming and events sponsored by Saratoga Arts and inclusion into a members only network. You can sign up for the previously mentioned $35 membership right on our website by clicking the link below.
