Denison, TX (August X, 2025) – The Denison Arts Council is proud to announce the launch of Le Salon des Artistes, a juried art show premiering this fall in downtown Denison, TX. The juried exhibition and competition are inspired by the historic Salon de Paris, a series of prestigious exhibitions that began in Paris, France in 1667. Known simply as “The Salon,” the original show helped shape the French and European art scene over several centuries. It represented the intersection of creative expression, government support, and institutional recognition, providing an important platform for both emerging and established artists. The Denison Arts Council aims to celebrate that same energy with its first-ever juried competition.
Le Salon des Artistes welcomes a wide range of artistic styles and expressions. This year’s show includes the following categories: 2D, 3D, Photography, Jewelry, and Mixed Media (2D and 3D). All stylistic interpretations are encouraged. The official call for art is open now, with entries due September 17 through the Zapplication platform.
