Artists will be notified by email when their work has been accepted for hanging or display. Please ensure that your correct details are registered with Gallery 247.
Exhibits must be on durable material, and made ready for hanging (fitted with substantial hanging wire or heavy duty cord). Flush D Hangers are those which do not protrude when paintings are stored.
