Artist Opportunities

Exhibit at Art’s House Gallery

Art’s House Gallery presents a variety of group, thematic, and individual shows throughout the year. Watch for our Call for Artist announcements on this site and on our social media. Or if you are interested in exhibiting at Art’s House Gallery, complete the Featured Artists application.

Art’s House Gallery is a community space for community artists managed by the River Falls Community Art Base (CAB), a nonprofit organization dedicated to facilitating arts-related events and projects in and around the community of River Falls, Wisconsin. We are always looking for new projects to take on and encourage anyone interested in supporting the arts in our community to become involved by exhibiting work in our gallery, volunteering to staff our gallery during open hours, making a donation, or becoming a member.

Teach a Class!

Community Arts Base is currently looking for artists interested in sharing their passion for creating with youth and adults in our community this summer! CAB’s classes are typically held on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the Riverwalk Square building. Classes for youth ages 5–16 will be held from 3–5, and classes for ages 16–adult will be held from 6–8. If you're interested in teaching, please fill out and submit a class proposal form. You can email artshouse108@gmail.com with any questions.

Art’s House Gallery Gift Boutique

Art’s House Gallery is looking for original handmade works priced up to $75 to be part of our gallery’s gift shop area. Clothing, home goods, and accessories as well as smaller-scale two-dimensional and sculptural works all do well.  Artists and craftspeople of all media interested in sharing their work for two to four six-month periods can apply here.

CAB Member Show

Art’s House Gallery is thrilled to host the first CAB Annual Member Show Thursday, June 20 to Saturday, August 3, 2024.  This show is open to all active CAB members and will be a visible feast of eclectic art of all media types from painting and pottery to glass, photography, and art to wear. If you are an existing CAB Member and are interested in showing your art, sign up here. The sign-up deadline is June 8.

CAB’s mission to foster the arts in and around our beautiful River Falls community - from Art on the Kinni to Music in the Park - relies on the varied financial and volunteer support of our members (you can become a member here).  CAB members not only support local arts, many of them are artists themselves.  The CAB Annual Member Show is a great opportunity to showcase a variety of artistic styles and media at all levels of artistic expression.  Come show your support for our CAB artists!  

Art’s House Gallery & Gift Boutique offers unique local art and gifts year round, and the CAB Annual Member Show will be open through the Kinnistock Music Festival and River Falls Days.

The “Meet the Artists” reception for this show will be held on Thursday, June 27 from 6:00–8:00 PM. We’ll welcome musician Jim Ehlers along with light refreshments, good company, and great art.  See you there!

Ellsworth Public Library Seeking Artists and Instructors

The Ellsworth Public Library is often looking for artists, presenters and/or leaders to teach, present and/or lead classes or talks around a variety of subjects. The library has a once-a-month Tuesday program in partnership with our Senior Center that a one-off art class would be perfect for, a once-a-month Doodle Club for ages 9-12, and a once-a-month Teen Meetup that would be a great place for some art education. The library is also set to move into a larger space later this fall that will have a Maker Space and other areas of creativity that will be perfect for guest artists. There will also be a number of dedicated art walls, which can host monthly local art exhibitions.

Contact Caroline Herfindahl for more information.
