During the academic year 2020/21 Hartnett Gallery was closed to the public due to the COVID-19 restrictions on campus. We moved our entire exhibition program online. We continue to closely monitor the situation and we are hopeful that we will be returning to the gallery in the Fall. If this is still not possible, we will work with the selected projects to adapt them for an online environment. These will be the parameters for online exhibitions:
3-4 week solo exhibition hosted at the Hartnett Gallery website during the 2021-2022 academic year
$1,300 honorarium
assistance during the online installation
assistance to organize an online artist event during the duration of the exhibition
press material and PR support
