Welcome to PAS 2023!
Taking the best of all our past shows, we’re planning a new dynamic exhibition to best showcase the talent here at Parker Street Studios. As a collective of artists we have the potential to generate more opportunities to exhibit and build our audience, using a range of platforms. Here’s what we have lined up for this year:
PENDULUM GALLERY May 15 - June 16

SMALL ART GALLERY
drop off you art (smaller that 14” x 14”) to studio 221 during our set up dates ( June 1 and 4)
we’ll have a gallery set up in the front loading bay to promo your work. (sales will go through you)
NEW!
**This year you may participate without even being there.
Easy peasy - simply drop off your artwork for the exhibition and auction and we’ll do the rest. You'll receive 50% of your art in the auction plus all the other marketing benefits such as media promo, Waddington’s auction, web profile page and social media.
Can’t make the Parker Open Studio/ Hall Exhibit on June 10th?
We can arrange to have your artwork included in the hall exhibit. We’ll have a designated gallery area that will be staffed. Sales would go through PAS with a 15% commission going to staff. Art drop offs TBA
Requirements for ParkerArtSalon Artists
Register + $160 payment by February 22nd
Etransfers to parkerartsalon@gmail.com
All registrants will need to fill out the PROMO FORM
WADDINGTONS AUCTION SUBMISSIONS:
You may submit one existing or new artwork which best represents your work for the Preview + Auction.. Artwork not to exceed 40” X 40” (including frame) **if your work is larger than this, please contact us directly as there may be some wiggle room
Why?
Auctions with middle to small pieces are more accessible and easier to sell. People are more willing to bid on items that are not too large (especially if they are only seeing them online)
We have limited space - in order to best show all the artwork for the Auction Preview, we need to limit the size.
Art must be ready to hand with D-rings to be dropped off at studio 218 between March 22 - 29 (3 - 5pm)
50% of sold art goes to Beedie Luminaries For more info on the foundation, click the link below:
