Our annual juried show is open to artists nationwide. After we receive submissions, guest juror Richard McCoy will select the best pieces for show (15-20) and then choose first, second, and third place winners, who will receive monetary prizes. DePauw students are encouraged to apply, and have won awards in the past.
