Museum Statement

Since 2015, the Monmouth Museum has celebrated our Artist Members by hosting a non-juried art exhibition. The show is an excellent opportunity for our members, we are continuing the tradition and exhibiting member artwork in an exclusive show once again. As a show of miniatures, we are looking for artwork no bigger than 15"x15" when framed. Artwork can be all media types and must be wall-mountable. All artwork following the guidelines above will be accepted. Artists will be contacted with a reminder of dates via Submittable. Exclusive to Museum Members! (limit 2 pieces)
