ELIGIBILITY
HxWxD was created in 2007 by the Rosewood Gallery as an opportunity for artists to exhibit their work and for the community to experience the quality and diversity currently being done in sculpture. In 2011, the show changed the eligibility to include artists living in Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Kentucky, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. All types of 3-D mediums are welcome, including: clay, wood, stone, fiber, metal, glass and mixed media. The work must be able to fit through the 34" x 79" doorway and must have been created within the last four years.
