Thank you for your interest in participating in the Juried Art Show this Spring! Registration is $75 (non-refundable) to enter one, two, three, or four pieces of artwork for consideration in the Juried Art Show. After you’ve registered, please fill out the Entry Form and email us digital images of your artwork. Information on these next steps can be found on our Events page. The Pacific NorthWest Art School will host an online gallery of submitted artwork on our website for 60 days, running from April 25 – June 25, 2025. This is NEW and we are so excited to offer this to our artists. The online show is non-juried!

This juried exhibition will provide an exciting platform for local talent to connect with the community and gain exposure. The focus is on working artists. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to have your work seen both online and in person. Due to space constraints for the physical show, not all your juried pieces may be in the exhibition but all artists who submit will have their work in the ONLINE GALLERY.

We look forward to seeing your incredible artwork!
