What to expect

When visitors enter the speaker’s stage area at the Medium Festival they have the opportunity to explore our Community Exhibition. The exhibit will feature original photographs installed by each artist on a series of display panels. We will have information about each artist beside their work and ways for the public to connect with artists directly for purchases, general inquiries, and community.

Photographs must be unframed and on paper no larger than 11”x14”. Each print will be hung by you beginning at 9:00am on Saturday March 22. We will supply you with an informational card to hang next to your work that shares your name, the artwork title and your social media handle or website. All participating artists are required to sign a liability release, and must pick up the prints no later than 5:00pm on March 22. Prints left beyond this time will be considered property of Medium Photo.

Participants are allowed to install up to two works of art, free of charge, as part of the Community Exhibition.
