The Gallery will include up to two (2) works per accepted artist. Maximum dimensions, 24″x24″. All artists must meet the criteria of an Emerging Artist as outlined in the Prospectus.

This exhibition is an art competition. Cash awards will be given for Best of Show ($75), 1st Place ($50), 2nd Place ($25), and ribbons for honorable mention as determined by the curator and judge.

Join us for a First Friday opening reception and awards presentation on September 4 from 5-7PM at the Center, where we’ll be joined by new collections presented by Sanford Brush & Palette Club’s Brick City Gallery, and the Lee County Arts Council Gallery.
