Now in its 25th year, the Arts Center’s Annual Juried Exhibition highlights exceptional work by regional artists working across a range of media. Selected by an invited juror, the exhibition reflects the depth, skill, and creative vision present throughout our Appalachian community. Award winners will be announced in advance and honored during our Annual Gala Celebration.

This exhibition celebrates 25 years of successful arts programming that continues to shape our future. The exhibition will display for six weeks in the Great Hall Gallery at the Arts Center and online from May 4 to June 17. Ruth Blackwell Rogers will have a solo exhibition during the time in the Maxwell Gallery.
