Crossroads Art Center invites gallery members to participate in a themed exhibition celebrating Cornucopia—An Exhibition of Abundance, Harvest & Creative Plenty. This juried show welcomes traditional, contemporary, whimsical, or conceptual work that speaks to richness in all its forms, from literal harvest imagery to abstract expressions of overflow and energy.

  • Harvest scenes, fruits, vegetables, florals, and natural bounty
  • Textures of autumn, orchards, fields, seasons, and earth
  • Symbols of gratitude, generosity, and abundance
  • Still life arrangements bursting with color and form
  • Metaphorical or emotional 'fullness'
  • Cultural or mythological interpretations of the horn of plenty
  • Abstract expressions of overflow, energy, vibrancy, or richness

Open to Current Gallery Members only. Gallery membership is a different status than Artist-in-Residence. All work must be original, created by the artist. No reproductions or giclee prints accepted unless approved by owner. Works where the art process is the printed process (etching, monoprint, silkscreen, lithograph) or printed digital images created with Procreate, Photoshop, etc. are permitted. All 2-D work must be wired; no sawtooth hangers. Work previously accepted into a juried show at the art center may not be entered again.

Submit up to three works with an artist statement (200-word limit, first person). When filling out the form: use capital letters for name; do not type commas in prices; list measurements as HEIGHT x WIDTH x DEPTH. How you fill out the form is how it will appear on labels, awards, publicity, and online. No changes will be made after the call for entries ends unless the gallery is at fault.
