Anything Goes is an open-call art show where everyone is welcome. Artists of all ages are invited to submit pieces, and every work will be exhibited until we quite literally run out of wall space. Anything Goes is about community, creativity, and making room for as many voices as possible. If you’ve ever wanted to be part of a gallery show, this is your chance. This show is about participation, not perfection. It’s a chance to try something new, share something personal, or finally put that piece out into the world. Whether you’re a longtime artist or showing your work for the first time, this is an easy, low-pressure way to be part of a gallery show and see your work alongside others.

Held in the 40 West Arts District in Lakewood, Anything Goes will include both 2D and 3D artwork. There’s no theme to follow and no barrier to entry, just an open invitation to participate.

All pieces must be smaller than 24 x 24 inches, and ready to hang with proper hanging wire or D-rings. Entry fee is $10 for pieces under 12 x 12 inches, and $15 for pieces up to 24 x 24 inches.

Prints and photography are welcome, but need to be framed. Artists may submit up to three large pieces or five small ones. All work submitted must be for sale. All pieces need to be labeled with the artist’s name and the title. Sculptures must fit on a pedestal. And while we are open to nudity, we won’t accept any pieces that are overtly sexual or violent. Kanon reserves the right to refuse any pieces that are offensive or unable to be hung properly.

Please print and bring this artist agreement with your pieces. You can list additional pieces on the back.

The show will open on First Friday, March 6 and run through March 29. We will have receptions all Friday nights that the show runs. All work must be picked up on Sunday, March 29, between 12-5 pm. Kanon takes no responsibility for work that is left at the gallery after March 29.

Kanon will charge a 30% commission on all work sold. Kanon accepts all major credit cards. Payment for work will be available 30 days after the show ends, typically through PayPal.Kanon Collective is located at 6501 W. Colfax Ave. in the Art Hub at 40 West. We’re right across the parking lot from Casa Bonita, between Key Bank and Burger King.Accepted art may be photographed for emails, our website, and other publicity pieces.
