Some universities have exhibits in their main hall, which is not so great. On the other hand, many universities have stellar spaces. I used to work at one of them myself and it’s only gotten grander since I left (no, the two incidents are not related!). A well-done exhibit will garner attention regardless of where it is. Diane: I’m afraid I don’t know much about that. I honestly have never heard of unlimited slide submissions. Perhaps someone else here can help you with that. I can’t imagine why any venue would allow that other than to make them more money. It just creates a ton of extra work for them.

I think as a rule they get very little exposure, but do you think they are considered prestigous?

It’s always seemed a suspicious practice, and doesn’t really give each artist an equal opportunity. I’d love to hear your thoughts about this, Alyson.

Do I want international acclaim and hundred thousand dollar sales? or do I want to live comfortably (whatever your definition) pursuing my passion? or do I just want to do something that I like a lot and get it out there every now and then? There are tradeoffs, perqs and downsides for all ends of the spectrum – and I think it’s really important to know what we want, because we all don’t want the same thing, so the coffee shop around the corner that sells $200/month for you may be just the ticket or not.

I wish that I had advice like you give many moons ago. It’s not too late, but it’s twilight.
