Artists are invited to submit original paintings with a painted surface no greater than 14 inches at its longest dimension. All subjects and original painting styles are welcome; photographs and reproductions are not accepted. Each artist may submit 1 to 5 images for evaluation by an experienced panel of jurors comprised of fine art curators and professional gallery personnel. The entry fee is $35 (non-refundable).

All selected paintings will be exhibited and promoted for sale both in person at The Rice Gallery of Fine Art and online. Selected works are eligible for cash prizes, including a $1,500 Best of Show Prize. Juried selections will be announced by January 9, 2023. The exhibition opens to the public on February 10, 2023 and closes on March 10, 2023. Selected paintings must be received by the gallery by January 30, 2023 via shipment or local delivery. Artists are responsible for all shipping expenses and shipping insurance. The Rice Gallery collects a 45% commission on any paintings sold during the exhibition. Unsold works will be returned via shipment or local pickup at the artist's expense. Prize money and artist sales proceeds will be paid by check after the show's completion.
