National Juried Art Exhibition
Opening Reception: January 24, 2019

Each year, the Fred Parker Giles Gallery at Eastern Kentucky University, in conjunction with the Chautauqua Lecture Series and the Department of Art and Design, mounts a National Juried Art Exhibition focused on that year’s theme. The exhibition is organized by Giles Gallery curator, Esther Randall, who selects the juror and manages the submission process. Entrants are required to submit an artist’s statement that expresses their sense of their work’s connection to the series theme. Jurors typically select 50-70 works in all media as finalists for the exhibition and award merit prizes and monetary awards for the top three (or more) entries. In addition, a special theme award is conferred by the curator in collaboration with the lecture series coordinator.
