Get matched →Art on the Square is the 61st Annual juried outdoor art fair held in historic Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia, dedicated to showcasing original, high-quality, handcrafted work in diverse media. The event attracts thousands of residents and tourists and features approximately 100 juried artists. Proceeds from artist booth fees support visual and performing arts organizations throughout the Williamsburg area and JWCW's arts scholarships program.
Submit applications online via ZAPP (www.zapplication.org). Each application requires 3 images of your work, 1 booth image, an artist information statement, and the non-refundable $35 jury fee. This is a blind jury process—jurors evaluate only your images without knowing your name or location.
Your work is scored 1–5 by a four-person panel of experienced art professionals. Scores are averaged, and top-scoring artists are reviewed by committee for final selection. High-scoring artists not invited to the show are retained on a waitlist of alternates. Decisions are final; previous acceptance does not guarantee future acceptance.
First place in each media category receives $250. Categories include Ceramics, Painting/Drawing, Jewelry, Photography, and others. No single category may comprise more than 25% of the show.
Every listing links to the organizer's official page. Always confirm deadlines, fees, and entry rules there before you apply.
Artists may submit separate applications for work in different media categories or distinctly separate bodies of work within one category. Each application requires its own Zapplication account, digital images, and jury fee. No advantage is gained by submitting the same body of work multiple times.
