Maine Medical Center, the largest hospital in Northern New England, announces the Spring 2014 Call for Proposals for our rotating art exhibit at the hospital conference center at our primary campus in Portland.

The Rotating Art Exhibits are a great opportunity for Maine artists to gain more exposure as well as offering enrichment and enjoyment to patients, visitors and staff. Given that Portland is often recognized as one the most culturally fascinating cities in the country, the visual arts are an important part of our community. The exhibits will be highlighted on the Maine Medical Center website and intranet pages for all employees.  Those interested in purchasing artworks on display will be directed to the artist to complete that sale with an agreement that the artist will send 20% of the proceeds from these sales to benefit the hospital art program.

Maine professional artists and artist organizations are invited to submit an application for this program.  The exhibit shall hang for approximately four months beginning February 24, 2014. The selection of the exhibits will be juried by the MMC Art Committee based on the Criteria for Exhibitions, the quality of the art and the suitability for hospital patients, visitors and staff. 

The Exhibit Application Form, Guidelines for Exhibitions, and the exhibit space information can be found at our website:  www.mmc.org/thearts.
