We are changing our structure for this competition beginning with the 2023 - 2024 season! Now artists will have the opportunity to apply 2 times a year! We have also increased our # of shows to monthly instead of bi-monthly! We wanted to give more artists opportunity to be seen by increasing this # to 12 shows a year!

The artwork must be a cohesive body of work with the same distinct style, consistency and theme. No political, profanity or nudity allowed.
