2025 Eastern Regional Exhibition Artists Inclusion Form

Dear OPA Exhibiting Artist,

Congratulations on your acceptance into this year’s Eastern Regional Exhibition to be held at Beverly McNeil Gallery, September 11 – October 11, 2025. OPA and Beverly McNeil Gallery look forward to receiving your painting. 

Important Information!

All artists who have been juried into the exhibition are required to fill out the form below.

A couple of quick reminders!

•Paintings MUST be either hand-delivered or shipped in a box. Do NOT send it wrapped in paper or loose cardboard. A $100 fee will be assessed for wooden crates.

•Artists who do not ship in an approved art box or hand-deliver their painting MUST pay the $25 uncrating fee online. Cash and checks are not accepted and must be paid to OPA

Questions? Please email your questions to mail@oilpaintersofamerica.com.

Thank you!

Confirm Your Crating Method

Please fill out the online form below. If you are shipping under Option #1, please be prepared to pay the uncrating fee online.

2025 Eastern Regional Exhibition Accepted Artist Inclusion Form

  • If you are shipping your painting to Birmingham in a non-commercial shipping container, there is a $25 uncrating fee which OPA will send directly to Beverly McNeil Gallery. The uncrating fee must be paid no later than August 22nd in order for your painting to be hung in the show. Do NOT send it wrapped in paper or loose cardboard. A $100 fee will be assessed for wooden crates.

  • If you are sending your artwork using a commercial art box, such as AirFloat, MasterPak, Uline, etc., you do not need to pay the uncrating fee. However, you are required to complete the form below. NOTE: Federal Express Premium Art Boxes are acceptable, but the Federal Express large frame box is not. Also, Home Depot boxes and homemade art boxes do not qualify under the uncrating fee exemption.

  • OPA and Beverly McNeil Gallery highly recommend you obtain insurance for your artwork while in transit. The shipping industry is experiencing staff shortages resulting in longer delivery times and less care taken with shipments. One option to consider, is ShipandInsure which offers OPA members insurance and discounts on Federal Express.

  • This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.
