A separate application, images, and fee of $50 must be submitted for each category an individual artist enters (maximum of 3 categories total per artist). Only one application may be submitted per body of work represented; multiple applications must represent a distinctly separate body of work.

If an application does not conform to stated rules, it may be disqualified.

172 artists will exhibit at the 2027 KAF, with 12 award winners from 2026 invited to return. The remaining exhibition slots will be determined through a competitive jury process by a diverse group of 5 art professionals. Top scoring artists in each category are invited. The Executive Director, in consultation with the Artists Committee, retains the right to invite up to 5 artists outside of the jury process.
