      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.

Dacia Gallery invites women artists to submit their work for consideration in our 2026 Group Exhibition celebrating the achievements and perspectives of women in the arts. We welcome a broad and distinguished range of mediums and styles, featuring recent works that reflect the forward-thinking practices of contemporary women artists. This exhibition will unfold like a vibrant tapestry woven from many voices - stories of resilience, joy, rebellion, tenderness, and transformation. Selected artists will join a dynamic, buzzing atmosphere where each work amplifies the next, creating a space alive with color and conversation. Participants will receive comprehensive promotional support, including targeted gallery marketing, a formal opening reception, and an Artist Talk held during the event. Artists seeking gallery representation or the opportunity to exhibit in New York City are encouraged to apply, enabling us to discover their work and present it to the public, as well as to gallery directors, curators, and collectors. This exhibition serves as a refined tribute to the talent, vision, and enduring influence of women in the arts.
