Key Details for Submitting Artists

Submitting for the BARNWOOD Marketplace

The Fall 2026 Show will also include the BARNWOOD Marketplace, a section of the show that features smaller, more casually presented works that visitors would find in a Maker Mart environment.

This includes original works in sleeves (as opposed to frames), smaller framed works, original ceramic pieces, stickers made by artists, smaller works in stained glass, T-Shirts, pins, and generally items priced between $10 – $100 (but not exclusively).

If you’d like to share your works for BARNWOOD Marketplace consideration, please send us a DM on instagram @pinkstallionevents that includes examples of your work and their suggested pricing.

Submitting for the general BARNWOOD Exhibition

Artists 18 years and older are invited to submit up to 10 works of original art for consideration by the event producers. All works must be for sale and selected works will be displayed as part of the Collector’s Showcase and Fall 2026 Show events.

All entries will be informed by Friday August 21, 2026 if their work has been accepted to BARNWOOD Fall 2026.

If you’d like to submit your work for consideration in the general Exhibition, please complete the form at the link below.

All media will be considered and works should focus on the male form

  • As the name of the event implies, works ranging from nude to lewd are expected and variety in the subject matter is encouraged when possible.
  • Preference will be given to exhibiting original work. Reproductions will be considered but will likely be made available for sale in the BARNWOOD Marketplace instead of being included in the main exhibition.
  • Work must be submitted by the artist.
  • Work must not have been exhibited at a previous edition of BARNWOOD.

Work accepted into the Fall 2026 Show Exhibition must be professionally presented

  • All accepted work must be wired and ready to hang or display as most appropriate. Plastic sleeves for sketches and other works are acceptable.
  • The maximum (framed) width is 38 inches, maximum height is 50 inches.
  • 3D work must fit through a standard doorway (30 inches wide x 6 feet high). All that said, if your work falls outside these general guidelines, please reach out.

Commission

Pink Stallion Events takes a 30% commission on all sales.

Payment

Pink Stallion Events will pay artists for all works sold within 7 days of the end of the event. Payment will be made via PayPal, Venmo or check.

Presentation + Promotion

All artwork will be hung in the gallery’s physical space. The event producers retain the right to share images of all accepted artwork on digital and printed materials in order to promote the show. The artist will be credited by name and/or social media handle in all instances.

Pink Stallion will promote BARNWOOD via online and print media and online event scheduling. The show will also be promoted through Pink Stallion and Big Gay Hudson Valley’s digital channels. Featured artists are encouraged to tag @PinkStallionEvents @BigGayHudsonValley and #BarnwoodArtShow in all social media posts about their participation in the event.

Before the Show: Delivery of Exhibition + Marketplace Artwork

All work must be delivered to the BARNWOOD producers by Monday, October 5th, 2026

If accepted into BARNWOOD, please note that there will be no works accepted before September 10, 2026.

  • In-Person Delivery: The producer will coordinate with you directly on timing for a drop-off.
  • Shipping: Work can be mailed to 307 Union Center Road, Ulster Park, NY 12487. It is recommended that you insure and/or track your shipment at your own discretion. If you are shipping your artwork, you must include prepaid return shipping and reusable packaging to return any unsold work.
  • New York City Pickup Day: A New York City pickup day will be designated after the submission period closes. Artists based in the area can coordinate with BARNWOOD’s producers to hand off their work in person.

All works must be clearly labeled with:

  • The artist name and title somewhere on the backside of the piece
  • Orientation of artwork should be indicated if not obvious
  • The sale price of the work (taking a 30% commission into account)

After the Show: Returning Artwork
