Enter the 96th Juried Artists Exhibition — Texas’ Oldest Statewide Art Competition
The San Antonio Art League + Museum invites artists from across Texas to enter the 96th Juried Artists Exhibition, the longest-running juried art show in the state. This historic exhibition celebrates excellence in contemporary art and offers a unique opportunity to showcase your work in one of Texas’s most respected venues. Prizes and awards total over $10,000, including named awards in a variety of media. Our distinguished juror will select approximately 65 works for exhibition, giving artists statewide recognition and a chance to be part of a storied artistic legacy that began in 1927. Join generations of Texas artists who have made their mark through this prestigious event. We welcome entries in all media from artists 18 and older living in Texas. 
OUR JUROR: Catherine Walworth, Ph. D.
Catherine Walworth is Curator at the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts, where she brings a lively, cross-disciplinary lens to modern art. Her upcoming exhibition, Architects of Being: Louise Nevelson and Esphyr Slobodkina, debuted 2025 before touring nationally. At AMFA, she has also curated Path to Abstraction: Picasso, Braque, and Cubism’s Impact on Modern Art and Kwame Brathwaite: The 1970s, while guiding significant new acquisitions for the collection. Previously, Walworth shaped exhibitions at the Columbia Museum of Art, including Jackson Pollock: Mural and The Ironic Curtain: Art from the Soviet Underground. She holds a Ph.D. in art history from The Ohio State University, and her award-nominated book Soviet Salvage reflects her passion for connecting art with broader cultural histories. |
