ROY G BIV Gallery champions emerging artists by presenting thought-provoking exhibitions that increase the public’s awareness of the artists’ work and enhance the cultural diversity of Central Ohio by focusing on artistic merit alone. Exhibitions are created from a juried process that begins with an annual call for artists. To be added to our mailing list and/or to receive information about applying for an exhibition in 2024, email us at info@roygbivgallery.org Inclusion in a ROY G BIV Gallery exhibition is an opportunity that supports emerging artists in furthering their careers. Additionally, ROY provides educational programming, critique, and networking opportunities for members and the community.
A resource for emerging artists in Columbus since 1989, ROY is known for showcasing innovative contemporary art by artists, both local and global. As a nonprofit art gallery, ROY impacts the community by supporting neighborhood activities and arts groups, hosting outside organizations in its gallery space and collaborating with other arts institutions on events and promotion.
ROY’s highest priority is to support artists who:
-
Are creating new work
-
Are early in their careers
-
Have a focused direction and goals, even while still developing their artistic “voice”
-
Have yet to be substantially celebrated within their field, the media, funding circles or the public at large
-
Are not yet represented by a gallery
