submissions guidelines

Submissions guidelines and forms are different for our Main Gallery, Photographer’s Marketplace, and juried shows. Bookmark this page, and we’ll keep you updated with what’s new in our gallery and what’s in store in the future.

Artist-in-Residence

Our Residence Program was developed to continue our support and education of fine art photographers. Through the program, artists receive a $2250 credit for use of the rentals, services, and workshops at RayKo. There is a five month time frame to shoot, print, and complete the body of work, and one month to prepare work for the exhibition. Artists gain hands on experience in the entire process of creating work, from conceptualizing, printing, framing, and hanging. Work produced in the program will culminate in a show in our side gallery. Up to three final prints of the gallery’s choice will be donated to RayKo’s print collection. Artists will have regular review sessions with the gallery director as the project progresses. Mentoring is available to assist in the artistic development of residents and cultivate a more polished body of work. Please visit our website for more details and for updated information and deadlines.
