The Alliance for the Arts is seeking Florida artists to submit their work to the Annual All Florida Juried Exhibit. This award-winning show is the Alliance’s longest running exhibition and features pieces created by artists working in a wide variety of media from all over the state of Florida.

This year’s juror is Lynn Whitelaw, the founding Director and Curator of the Leepa-Rattner Museum of Art, located on the Tarpon Springs Campus of St. Petersburg College. Whitelaw’s curatorial efforts have resulted in over one hundred and forty exhibitions shown at Hillsborough Community College, the Tampa Museum of Art and the Leepa-Rattner Museum of Art.

The opening reception will be March 8 from 5 – 7 p.m. The juror will be on hand to present awards including $1,000 cash for Best In Show, a 2nd Place gift certificate, $100 cash for 3rd place and Jurors Choice Award(s) of Alliance for the Arts membership(s).

Categories for entry are sculpture, painting (including oil, acrylic, collage, water color and mixed media), photography, prints and drawing.  An entry may consist of 1 to 3 artworks. All entries must be submitted online no later than Jan. 28, 2019. Artists can download the prospectus and submit their work online at ArtInLee.org/AllFlorida2019.

A conversational walk and talk through the gallery with the artists and juror will be held on March 9 at 10 a.m. during the Alliance GreenMarket. Receptions and talks are open to the public and do not require tickets or reservations. While gallery admission is free, a $5 suggested donation keeps Alliance programming affordable and accessible. The show closes on March 30, 2019.

The exhibition is kindly sponsored by Elemental Stone and Waterworks.
