In January of each year Overture places a call for applications for exhibition. This announcement is distributed through our email list, to local media & on this webpage. Applications are due sometime in the spring and are juried shortly after the due date. In June Overture Galleries announce the upcoming, year-long season. The new season begins each fall and runs through the following summer.
