There is a $10.00 charge to enter work/s to this exhibition (standard administrative cost per exhibiting artist regardless of the number of photos entered). No late submissions will be considered for exhibition. Photographs don’t need to be framed. Ensure that the photographs include your name, price and contact details on the back. Photographs on this exhibition will not be on sale. Images will be on display as part of the Out of Control exhibition between Sat 2 June- Wednesday 20 June. You are welcome to join us for the opening event. After completion of the exhibition you need to pick up your photos at the Depot on Thursday 21 June (10 am-4.30 pm). Depot Artspace has no storage facilities and takes no responsibility for the works after this date.
