About the Exhibition and Competition

Artists are welcome to enter three works for consideration in the first round of judging through the application at the bottom of this page. All artists will be considered for both the exhibition and the painting competition.

After applications are received, 9 artists will be chosen to compete in this live landscape painting competition. The rest of the artists will be showcased in the exhibition alongside the competition, please note space will be limited so all artists and all their submitted works may not be showcased.

About the Live Competition

The in-person landscape competition will take place on Saturday, September 7th from 9:00 - 3:30. The 9 chosen artists will be given two and a half hours to work on their landscapes quietly without an audience. At 11:30 spectators will be invited to watch the artists complete their works! Artists will continue to paint until 1:00 PM. Four hours after the start, bushes will be set down, and the judges will go around to take in the works. After the judges have deliberated, the top three will be chosen. One artist will be selected as the winner of this year's competition, and two others will receive an honorable mention.
