Art Submission for Current / Returning Artists
Hello! The below is a refresher of our process. Depending on when you first started working with Offroute, there may be some updates so please read carefully.
Eligible artists must be between the ages of 16 - 24.
Artists must live in the United States and have active paypal accounts (this is how we send your payments)
Artists who live in the Pittsburgh region are asked to drop off any art that is accepted to one of our partner businesses or porch drop-off. Artists who live outside of the Pittsburgh region may ship their art to us and are responsible for shipping and handling fees for both art delivery and future art returns.
Pricing: Artists set their own prices and receive 100% of their sales. The majority of the art we sell is under $100 but we do consider higher priced pieces.
Are you interested in any of the below opportunities?
Review before submitting your work:
Types of art we accept: ceramics, fabric, metal, 2D, 3D, crafts.
Types of art we do not accept: clothes; jewelry; fan art; overly violent or sexual art; anything NOT original to the artist (i.e.: other people's work, copies of already existing art); pieces that are exceptionally heavy, fragile, or may be dangerous to handle.
How we select art: we do not accept everything that is submitted to us. We do our best to select a wide range of styles and expressions, but also strive to select art that is appropriate for all ages, interesting, and the we think we can display and help sell.
Name the file(s) you are uploading with the title of the piece, your last name, and price. For example: Untitled - Pugh - 25.
Next steps: We will email you within one week of submission. *
Next steps. If your art is not selected this time, we encourage you to try again in the future!*
Values: I understand that Offroute is an inclusive and supportive community. I have read Offroute's mission, understand, and support its work to support artists ages 16-24 and to connect the wider public with affordable, original art.*
Payment: Artists are paid via Paypal. You must have an Paypal account set up.*
Questions: If I have any questions about the process or need any clarification, I will email offrouteart@gmail.com. Email is our preferred method of contact because we don't always see all DMs.*
