For California artists

The Pence Gallery announces that its Emerging Artist Award 2020 is now open for application via www.callforentry.org. This award supports the creation of new work by emerging artists in California and the opportunity to share that work through an exhibit and artist talk. Artists must use the award to further their work in a significant direction. Artists may work in any medium, except for video or sound art.

The qualifications for this award are that the artist’s submitted work is of high caliber, original, and completed within the past five years.  The award is limited to artists residing in California, and will be determined by a panel of experts and donors.

This award is under-written by donors James R. and Suzette M. Smith, and offers an award of $3000 and a solo exhibit at the Pence in January 2021.
