"Nightmare on 7th Ave" emerges as a spellbinding exhibition, casting an enchanting and eerie spell on the gallery space with a curated collection that delves into the realms of Halloween, horror, darkness, and witchyness. This hauntingly immersive showcase transforms the gallery into a sinister tableau, featuring an array of artworks ranging from chilling paintings to spine-tingling sculptures and bewitching multimedia installations. Artists conjure the macabre and mysterious, inviting visitors to traverse a visual labyrinth where the boundaries between reality and the supernatural blur. Collaborative installations amplify the spine-chilling atmosphere, incorporating dimly lit spaces, interactive soundscapes, and evocative projections. Sections dedicated to the spectral and supernatural themes provide an exhilarating journey through the darker aspects of creativity. "Nightmare on 7th Ave" stands not only as a celebration of the Halloween spirit but as a bewitching platform for artists to showcase their mastery in capturing the thrilling and mysterious aspects of the supernatural, offering viewers an immersive encounter with the artistry of fear and fantasy.
This exhibition will take place in the Kress Contemporary Art building in Ybor City, Tampa. The 2-day exhibition will drive art buyers and visitors to the 3rd floor for an exclusive art-buying experience. House of Shadows will be inviting thousands of followers and fans and the exhibition will be marketed through the Tampa Bay arts community, including artists with studios in the Kress Contemporary building.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Cloudfolios?
Cloudfolios is a platform we use to publish our art calls. Artists submitting their work for consideration will be doing so through the Cloudfolios system.
How and when will I know if I've been accepted?
Every artist who submitted their work for consideration will be notified by email. Once the work is finalized, an email is sent to the artists automatically by the Cloudfolios system (the same system the artist used to submit). This email will let the artists know which works were accepted and which works were rejected. If you do not receive an email within a couple of days, please double-check your spam folder and or contact us at: contact@hostampa.com.
What happens and or what do I do after I am accepted?
Accepted artists can expect a follow-up email directly from the gallery congratulating them on their acceptance as well as a very detailed PDF with their exhibiting details.
How and when do I submit my biography and conceptual statements?
Artists will be given detailed instructions through their exhibiting details PDF on how to submit their statements. This requirement only applies to artists who are accepted.
Why is installation, audio, and video art not allowed?
We apologize for this exclusion. Our gallery at this time is not equipped to exhibit these particular mediums of art. We hope to change this in the future.
How much is it to submit and are there any other fees during the submission process?
For this particular exhibition, the entry fee is $25.00 for a maximum of 10 works that you can submit. This means that for $25.00, you will be able to submit 10 individual works of art. The Cloudfolios system will charge you a 10% processing fee. That means that the submission will cost you a total of $27.50. The gallery DOES NOT charge you a 10% processing fee. The additional $2.50 charged does not go to the gallery. It goes to CloudFolios, a separate company. We simply utilize the Cloudfolios software.
