      Dacia Gallery has a year round open submission policy for our monthly exhibitions and accepts artwork from emerging and established artists in all media: painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, photography, digital art and mixed media. You may submit your artwork as a “general submission” or to a specific exhibit that we have listed below. All artwork submitted is reviewed by our curatorial panel and kept on file to be considered for each upcoming exhibition. Dacia Gallery does not charge an exhibition fee to artists to show their work, we select and show artists based on talent. Participating artists in our exhibitions will be announced on our website after the entry deadline for each exhibit. If your work fits a particular exhibition you will be notified directly by the gallery.     
           
           
      We are pleased to announce that we now have 2 art gallery spaces located in the same building on 11th Street in NYC and we can now do 2 exhibitions simultaneously.
