LAGS Printshop

Welcome to the Printshop!

Please review the following instructions carefully:

​

Preparing your artwork for the Printshop racks:​

​

• Maximum size 20” x 30”

• Minimum selling price $35 per piece

• Unframed work must be supported on a stiff backing like matt-board, or thin foam core 

• Each piece must be incased in a fitted protective clear plastic sleeve, or clear wrapping that is the same size as the art piece (not loose, no bags)

• The easiest method for unframed work is to use a premade matt-board that comes with a plastic sleeve and adhesive closure. To save costs, you can also buy matt-board or backing board, and cellophane wrap, that you cut and prepare yourself

• Please ensure you follow this guideline as it is the most professional way to present your work in your gallery. If you need help with the “how to” of your presentation, please ask your Printshop Co Chairs.

• If your work does not meet the presentation requirement, we will ask you to make the adjustments before rack placement. 

​

Submitting your artwork:

​

• Each piece must be registered prior to bringing to the gallery. We will not accept unregistered pieces. 

• You can submit up to 4 pieces of work to be included in the 2025 season

• You can add a jpeg image of each piece along with title. An image helps volunteers select the correct work at the time of a sale

• Bring your registered unframed artwork to intake day March 30 or 31 for our April All Members Show. Can’t make it to the first intake…your unframed work can also be received any subsequent month on intake/outtake days, May through October 2025

​

Sales of your artwork:

​

• You should receive a call or an email from the volunteer attendant or from the Printshop, notifying you of your sale. As with all sold work, 60% per sale will be mailed to you in 45 days or less, 40% will go to supporting the gallery, and 15% HST will be added at point of sale.

​​​

• If your artwork sells, we will invite you to bring in a registered replacement for that piece (a same piece or a new piece). For a same piece, you do not need to send a new jpeg. A new label will be printed at the gallery.

​

 At the end of the season:

​

• All unsold artwork must be picked up on the final outtake days October 2025 as noted on our website from 1-4pm. Because the galley is rented off season, LAGS cannot store work or be responsible for any left behind.

• We look forward to seeing your art in our racks this 2025 season!
