Question 1

How can I make my work known to the Curatorial Team at the Triton Museum of Art?

Accepted Answer

Artists may send examples of their work or exhibition proposals, or share their work with the Triton Museum of Art by email only to curatorial@tritonmuseum.org. Please send no more than ten images. Please send images as an attachment. Very high resolution images may be difficult to upload. Do not imbed the images in the email. Emails with embedded images will not be opened. Artists may also direct attention to artist’s websites for curatorial review. Artists will receive an email response after materials are reviewed. The Museum will retain on file the addresses and emails of artists of interest for future reference. All inquiries are reviewed and retained on file for future reference, however, due to the high volume of emails, we are unable to respond to all inquiries.
