CROSSCURRENTS 2022

CROSSCURRENTS 2022 is an exhibition open to visual artists 18 years and older residing in West Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Maryland, and Virginia. Artists may submit up to 3 works completed within the last calendar year that have not been previously exhibited at the Stifel Fine Arts Center. Works done in a class or under the instruction of an artist/teacher are not eligible. The entry fee is $30 (nonrefundable).

Work specifications: All 2-dimensional works must be properly framed with wire for hanging attached securely to the back (no sawtooth hangers). Work must not exceed 40 inches in any direction. Framed 2-dimensional works larger than 24 x 30 must use plexiglass instead of single pane glass. No installations will be accepted. Submit a high-resolution image (300 dpi) for the jury process. The Stifel Fine Arts Center will use submitted images for a concurrent online exhibit, documentation, the exhibit catalog, and promotional materials.

Important dates: Entry deadline is April 4 at 11:59 p.m. MDT. Juror notification will be emailed the week of April 18. Drop-off and shipped works are accepted April 25-30. The exhibition runs May 12 - July 2, with an opening reception on May 12. Pick-up dates for unsold work are July 5-9. The juror is Delanie Jenkins, an Associate Professor in Studio Arts at the University of Pittsburgh. Shipping is at the artist's cost; return shipping labels must be included. Works left at Stifel Fine Arts Center more than 30 days past the pick-up dates become the property of the center. For framing services, contact Brad Johnson at [email protected] or 304-242-7700.
