The Mosesian Center for the Arts invites member artists to submit original two and three-dimensional work to our upcoming Member Exhibition 2019 . In our on-going effort to provide meaningful opportunities to artists, the show will also feature a guest judge who will decide on and present a “Best in Show” cash prize and 3 “Judge’s Choice” awards to select artists in the show. There will also be a “People’s Choice” award presented to one artist that is determined by public voting conducted throughout the opening of the exhibition. Each member is guaranteed at least one piece in the show. Additional pieces will be included pending available space and jury outcomes.
The Opening Reception for this year’s Member Exhibition will coincide with The Mosesian Center for the Arts Annual Meeting. The judges awards will also be announced that evening.
