About Our Gallery
The ACAI Gallery is a local Community Gallery associated with Allied Ceramic Art Institute (ACAI), A 501(c)(3) non-profit. The Mission of ACAI is to promote and preserve ceramic and other arts through facilities, equipment, education, and exhibitions. It is also ACAI’s Mission to provide gallery space for local artists to show their work. We are looking for artists, new or established, in any medium, to participate in themed shows. We do not charge for submissions unless it is not for sale (NFS). ACAI keeps a percentage of all sales and collects $25 for all submissions that are NFS. We will accept NFS as space permits, and collect the $25 fee with the art delivery.
Gallery Hours
Wednesday through Friday from 1 pm to 4 pm and Saturday from 11 am to 3 pm. Hours are extended from 11 am to the end of the Artist Reception on the Reception Saturday of each show. You can also make an appointment to visit the gallery at a time more convenient for you.
