2026 Juried Art Exhibition Call for Artists

Submit artwork to Adams County Arts Council's juried exhibition. Open to all media. Juried by Philip Lindsey from Wilson College.

The Adams County Arts Council is inviting artists of all levels to submit work for the 2026 Juried Art Exhibition. This annual exhibition showcases the best artistic work from the region and is part of Creative Communities 250, an initiative celebrating the 250 voices of Adams County as Pennsylvania approaches its 250th anniversary.

The exhibition is open to all media including painting, sculpture, photography, fiber arts, ceramics, mixed media, and more. Both emerging and established artists are encouraged to participate. The juror for this year's exhibition is Philip Lindsey, Professor of Fine Arts and Curator of Bogigian Gallery at Wilson College, who will bring expertise and a fresh perspective to showcase exceptional artistic work.

Selected works will be displayed in the Adams County Arts Council galleries located at 125 South Washington Street in downtown Gettysburg. This is an excellent opportunity for artists to gain visibility and participate in an important community celebration.

The Adams County Arts Council is also launching several complementary programs this spring, including a new Teen Night program starting March 20 and expanded summer camps with full-day options. These initiatives are all part of the Creative Communities 250 project that documents and celebrates what makes the community special.
