Bridgewater College Seeks Art Exhibition Proposals 

Art Gallery with framed work hanging on the wall

Bridgewater College’s Beverly Perdue Art Gallery is accepting proposals for solo, two-person, group and curated exhibitions in any medium during the 2027–2028 and 2028–2029 academic years. The deadline for receipt of materials is Feb. 1, 2027, and selected artists will be notified by April 12. 

The Gallery is located on the first floor of the Forrer Learning Commons. It is a flexible space with nine-foot-high walls (some of them moveable) and a combination of LED track and natural lighting. The space is 22’ x 46’, with linear hanging space of 100’ +/-. A gallery floor plan will be sent once the gallery schedule is set. 

A stipend of $200 is available for each show to help offset expenses. Interested artists should submit 10–15 high-quality JPEG images by email attachment or flash drive, a corresponding image list (title, dimensions, media and completion dates), artist statement and CV. Please include a pre-paid padded mailer for the return of flash drives. 

Application materials should be emailed to Professor Ron Alabanza, Gallery Director, at ralabanza@bridgewater.edu.
