Veteran's Art Exhibition: "Our True Heroes" - Online & In-Person

6th Street Studios & Art Center is celebrating veterans in their 2nd annual online and in-person Veteran's exhibition. Local artists and families of veterans are welcome to submit works to be displayed in the physical location, while out-of-region artists can submit for the online show. All art must be created by a veteran, an active duty member, or a reservist. The theme is "Our True Heroes," and any interpretation of this theme is welcome.

The in-person exhibition will be displayed in the window gallery, lit and visible 24/7 on one of the busier streets in Downtown Gilroy. The exhibition will be open to the public during Gilroy's Veteran's parade, and the gallery is partnering with the Gilroy Veteran's Hall. The artist reception will be held on 11/17/23 during the Military themed Third Friday Art Walk in downtown Gilroy. Gallery hours are Monday-Friday 9am-2pm. Local artists eligible for the in-person show must be able to drop off and pick up their artwork; the gallery does not ship works. The online exhibition will be available on the website for the duration of the show, and artwork can be offered for sale if the artist chooses.

Entry deadline: 10/23/23 at 11:59 p.m. MDT. Entry fee: $15. Submit 1-6 images. At least one submission from each artist will be accepted. Artwork drop-off dates: Monday-Friday 9am-2pm, 10/26-11/2, or by appointment. Exhibition dates: 11/4-11/22. Artwork pick-up: 11/27-12/1, 9am-2pm, or by appointment. Contact: [email protected].
