6th Annual Member & Student Exhibition
PCA&M is excited to present our 6th Annual Member & Student Exhibition!
In conjunction with PCA&M’s 80th Anniversary Celebration, we will have the Member & Student show on display as well as a retrospective of some ephemera from our organization’s historical archives. For this reason, the Member and Student exhibition will be a little smaller than in recent years and we won’t be able to accept all of the work submitted. This exhibition will be juried and curated by the Creative Team here at PCA&M.
Help us celebrate you! We want to showcase the incredible level of talented and creative people that come through our doors, make artwork in our studios and support PCA&M by being a part of our community.
This exhibition opportunity is open to all people (18 and up) that have a current membership with PCA&M (associate, family, senior, student, or access) and any person who has been a recent student (2023 until now). Members should be in good standing and students should state what their most recent class or workshop was that they took with us.
We want to see your artwork!
Painting, drawing, ceramics, prints, jewelry/metals, photography, digital illustration, fiber arts, mixed media; we are interested in seeing it all!
We want to show off as much talent as possible, and at least one piece of all submitted work from each artist will be chosen for the show.
Art made utilizing AI will not be considered for this exhibition.
Please submit up to 3 images for consideration, listing the title, materials, year it was made, size, and price for each piece.
We will not accept artwork larger than 36″x36″.
All artwork should be ready for installation upon arrival, i.e. wired etc.
Exhibition Timeline:
Applications open: April 7th – May 10th

Frequently Asked Questions:
Does my artwork have to be made during a class or during studio access?
Not at all! Feel free to submit any piece whether you made it at PCA&M, at home, or even another studio.
I haven’t made anything new recently, can I submit an older piece?
We can’t resist a good classic! You can submit any piece as long as it was made from 2021 until now.
Does my work have to be for sale in the exhibition?
Only if you want it to be! We know you can’t always put a price on a piece, and we’re happy just to have the opportunity to exhibit your work.
I haven’t taken a class in a couple years, can I still submit my work?
We’re happy to accept work from any student who’s taken a class with us as far back as 2022.
Can I submit for the show if I just became a member?
Absolutely! This exhibition is open to all members whose membership is currently up to date.
How can I become a member?
You can sign up for a membership online, give us a call, or stop by and sign up in person.
I’d like to submit, but how do I know if my work is good enough to be shown?
Applying for shows can sometimes be intimidating, but we think all work is great in its own special ways! You can submit up to three of your favorite pieces, and we’ll accept at least one piece from every artist.
I used AI to make an image, can I show it in the exhibition?
AI can be a great tool for artists, but we’d like to showcase work that really highlights your human talent and skill! AI work will not be considered for this exhibition.
