Artists of all backgrounds and working in any medium are welcome to participate. Submissions may include drawing, painting, photography, printmaking, collage, sculpture, textiles, or mixed media, as long as each work is original and reflects the artist’s hand.
Each artwork will be exhibited and sold anonymously for $100, giving collectors and art lovers an accessible opportunity to discover and take home a unique work of contemporary art while supporting The Contemporary Dayton’s exhibitions and programs.
