Blanchet House On the Ledge Art Show 2025

The Blanchet House Emerging Professionals Board presents the sixth annual On the Ledge art show. This year’s theme is Small Joys

Small Joys are simple pleasures that make life more enjoyable. By celebrating the little things, we bring happiness and gratitude into everyday experiences.

On the Ledge serves a dual purpose of celebrating artists while raising funds to support Blanchet House's crucial services to those struggling with homelessness, food insecurity, addiction, and mental health challenges. 

Artists from a variety of mediums are invited to submit original or existing works for the 2025 exhibition which will run in August. Submissions will be accepted until May 31st using the 2025 Artist Submission Form.

Artist Submission Guidelines

    • We accept all mediums as long as they can be reproduced as 11”x14” giclee prints and 4”x6” postcards.

    • Submissions will be reviewed by a panel and selected based on their ability to fit within the event theme.

    • Blanchet House welcomes all artwork but reserves the right to refuse submissions that do not align with its mission.

    • We cannot offer artists compensation for materials and labor. 

    • If you are creating a physical piece and wish to sell the original work through the art show site, please indicate that on your submission.

    • Blanchet House will produce, display, and ship high-quality 11”x14” giclee prints and 4”x6” postcards of the original artwork. Art must also be submitted via form or email as a digital asset (.jpeg or .eps preferred) for high-quality reproduction as a giclee print. 

    • Each giclee print will be priced at an accessible $50 to attract a wide audience. Postcards will be available at a lower price tier. Revenue from digital print sales will be split 50/50 between Blanchet House and the artist. 

    • Original works can be sold at a price set by the artist. The original must also be submitted digitally for high-quality reproduction as a giclee print. Blanchet House is offering a 70/30 split on sales of original artwork, favoring the artist.

    • All art will be featured in an online gallery at bhontheledge.com with originals and prints on display at an exhibition in August. All exhibition details will be shared with selected artists.
