OPEN DOOR SEVENTEEN

Open Door is Rosalux Gallery’s annual open call exhibition which is on display for the month of December. Open Door is an exciting opportunity for outside artists to showcase their work in the gallery. Typically, this exhibition is reviewed and receives extensive press coverage from local media and is one of our best attended events of the year. Open Door is open to all North American residents working in any 2D/ 3D media and video. Only works completed within the past two years are eligible for submission.
