    Submissions
    Guidelines for General Submissions

    The Sioux City Art Center will consider exhibition proposals on an on-going basis, and actively encourages artists to send proposals and portfolios for review.

    Please include the following materials:

  • 15–20 images, clearly identified with artist, title, date, media, and dimensions or accompanied by a list containing this information
    (Acceptable image formats include slides, photographs or PC-formatted CDs or DVDs. If proposal is for a site-specific or an unfinished work, please provide examples of similar past work and any other materials that would help visualize the finished piece.)
    Note: Do not send URLs for web review, or original works
  • Brief statement explaining the work proposed for the Art Center
  • A tentative budget, including all shipping costs, artist's fees, etc.
  • Current resume or CV, including exhibition history
  • Contact information (include email)
  • Please send proposals to:
  • Sioux City Art Center
    Attn: Curator
    225 Nebraska Street
    Sioux City, Iowa 51101-1712

    Unsolicited proposals will only be answered if the Art Center is interested in programming the proposed exhibition. Proposals will be kept on file for future consideration; they will not be returned.


    Note: Please do not use email to send unsolicited proposals, portfolios, or URLs to on-line galleries.


    Moving Images
    submit video works

    This is an on-going program with no specific deadline; the exhibition series started in August 2007.

    Submissions are invited from all film and video-makers. Please send to:

    Moving Images
    Sioux City Art Center
    225 Nebraska Street
    Sioux City, Iowa 51101-1712

    Include a synopsis of the film/video(s) submitted, technical details, your email address, and a brief biography if you wish, or a link to your website. Submissions will not be returned.
    Note: Do not send URLs for web review of videos; email submissions are not accepted.


    Please submit all work on DVD-NTSC

    There is no fee to submit and there is no submissions form.

    Exhibiting artists will be paid a fee for presented works.


    Artists included in the first series (2007-2008) are: Dennis H. Miller, Erik Olofsen, Jud Yalkut, Robbie Land, and Roger Deutsch


    This exhibition presents the only opportunity currently in the Siouxland area to see work by contemporary film and video makers on an on-going basis. Works will be shown on a large flat screen monitor set-up in an appropriate area of the Atrium with benches as seating. This space has high visibility; it is not an enclosed “black box” space. The program will present the film/video work of a single artist at a time. Sending older work is encouraged to provide this audience with an overview of a film/video maker’s work.


    61st Juried Show

    Deadline for the 61st Juried Show has passed. Thank you to everyone who entered. Notifications will be sent out late in July, or in early August.
