What’s in it
Four of 200+ entries. The full list is updated every month.
| Exhibition | Where | Exhibits | Applications due | How you apply | Fee | My read |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Grand Canyon Celebration of Art | Grand Canyon Village, AZ | September | Mid-January | Open call | No fee | In the full list |
| Prix de West | Oklahoma City, OK | June | Feb 1 | Screening, then invitation | $50 | In the full list |
| Coors Western Art Exhibit & Sale | Denver, CO | January | Apr 1 | Open call | $35 | Coors is great. It looks invitational, but new artists apply via an open call; invitations go to returning artists. Collectors like this show for the quality and because every sale funds scholarships. |
| Modern Masters of the West | Fort Worth, TX | October | Mid-June | Open call | $35 | In the full list |
Western Gallery
Western Gallery’s own calls may be on this list, but working with me doesn’t change how I or any juror evaluates your work.
