The opportunity includes:

• Dedicated working studio space within The Hive

• Exhibition space for your work in the gallery

• Participation in The Hive's curated Maine artist collective

• Exposure to the visitors and collectors who come to Maine Art Hill

• The opportunity to sell your work through the gallery

• Opportunities to participate in gallery events, demonstrations, and programming

• A creative, professional environment alongside other Maine artists

What we're looking for:

The selected artist would commit to working in the studio 1–2 consistent days per week during gallery hours. While working in the studio, you would also be available to assist with gallery sales and visitor questions downstairs as needed.

We're particularly interested in an artist who:

• Lives locally or within a reasonable distance of Kennebunk

• Has an established or emerging body of original work

• Enjoys connecting with people and talking about their creative process

• Is comfortable working in a space that is visible and audible to gallery visitors, while maintaining a private studio upstairs

• Wants to be an active part of a collaborative creative space

This is intended to be a working studio, not simply a storage or private studio rental. The goal is to create a sense that something is always happening at The Hive: art being made upstairs, art being exhibited downstairs, and visitors getting a small glimpse behind the scenes.

The Hive is located at Maine Art Hill, a long-established art destination in Kennebunk with a strong seasonal visitor base and a loyal collector community.

Interested? We'd love to see your work and hear a little about your practice. Please send a short introduction, a link to your website or Instagram, and a few examples of your work to abby@fullcircleartconsulting.com
