The Arts & Culture Alliance of Greater Knoxville announces a call for entries for its 12th annual National Juried Exhibition. The National Juried Exhibition was developed to provide a forum for artists to compete on a national scale and display their work. Approximately 40-50 fine art works encompassing all styles and genres from both emerging and established artists will comprise the exhibition in the Balcony gallery of the beautifully-restored Emporium Center at 100 S. Gay Street from February 2-23, 2018. The Emporium is free and open to the public Monday-Friday, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM and other hours for special events.

The deadline for entries to be received is Sunday, December 10, 2017.

Prizes include at least $1,000 in cash awards, and exhibiting artists will receive a catalog of the exhibition.
