Call for Art

Download the 2010 Call for Art entry form.

Winter Fun by Savannah Euer Each year, VSA solicits artwork through a Call for Art. VSA receives around 200 submissions every year. Click here to download the 2010 Call for Art entry form.

The artworks submitted to the Call for Art are displayed in the Visual Expressions: A Call for Art Exhibition in March. Viewers may nominate their favorite pieces for a viewer's choice award and purchase one of the many works for sale. Click here to learn more about Art for Sale.

Artists’ submissions are reviewed by a jury of art professionals who look for originality, creativity and craftsmanship. They select ten pieces to receive purchase awards, ten pieces to receive honorable mention awards, and six pieces to receive recognition awards. All artists who receive awards are honored in an award ceremony. Works that have been selected for purchase awards are added to VSA's Traveling Exhibition. After three years, they are retired from the Traveling exhibitions and may be used as recognition gifts or sold by VSA to further sustain the program.
