EXHIBITION | ART + GIFT SHOPWorking Artist Membership
MUSICIAN members have the opportunity to be selected for special gallery performances with paid honoraria in conjunction with our Close Encounters chamber music series and gallery concerts. LITERARY ARTIST members have the opportunity to participate in our new cross-pollinating program, Ekphrastacy, spearheaded by the City of Cleveland Heights Poet Laureate. This program invites creative writers to create poems and prose in response to works in each of our special exhibitions. Premier readings of the new works are presented by the poets at an evening gallery talk during the run of the exhibition.
ARTIST OF THE MONTH
In its Artist of the Month program, Heights Arts purchases an original artwork from one of its working artist members each month. The artist and his/her work is then showcased in the gallery, in our newsletter and website, and through social media. All gallery visitors are invited to enter our free monthly drawing for a chance to win that month’s work of art. View our gallery of current and past featured Artists of the Month.
SPECIAL COMMISSION ARTWORKS
Visual artist-members also have the opportunity to be awarded special commissions by Heights Arts. At least once a year, Heights Arts invites a member artist to produce a limited edition artwork exclusively for Heights Arts. Editioned artworks are featured and available for purchase at Heights Arts gallery shop. Working artist members must submit portfolio materials here to be considered for Artist of the Month and commission opportunities. Become a Heights Arts Working Artist member.
