Patron & Young Artist Exhibition
Brown County Art Guild seeks entries for Patron & Young Artist Exhibition. Jan 16-18 call for entries. Exhibition runs Jan 23-Feb 14, 2026.
The Brown County Art Guild is hosting its annual Patron & Young Artist Exhibition, providing opportunities for artists of all ages to showcase their work. The call for entries runs January 16-18, 2026, with the exhibition on display from January 23 through February 14, 2026.
The exhibition accepts framed and ready-to-hang 2D work in any medium, excluding fine art photography, digital art, and 3D pieces. Two separate divisions cater to different age groups and experience levels.
The Patron division is open to artists ages 19 and older. Participants may enter up to two submissions with an entry fee of $40 for the first submission, which includes a one-year membership to the Brown County Art Guild. An optional second submission costs $20. Prizes will be awarded in the Patron division.
The Young Artist division welcomes artists 18 and under with free submission of up to two framed pieces. Young artists are also eligible for prize awards.
Additionally, the Art Guild is hosting several concurrent exhibitions through March 14, 2026: the Guild Artist Exhibition and Sale featuring award-winning member artists; the Flowers in Winter Special Exhibition celebrating artistic resilience; SMALL WONDERS showcasing petite and affordable original artwork; and the Painting Partners Historic Collection Exhibition (extended to January 18) featuring works from connected artistic couples in Brown County's art history.
This is an excellent opportunity for emerging and established artists to gain exhibition experience, connect with the local art community, and potentially earn recognition through the award programs.
