Members' Annual Exhibition

The BAC's annual Members’ Showcase is open to all current Artist Members ($50/$45 seniors and students.) The salon style presentation features myriad styles, levels of accomplishment and points-of-view representing a cross-section of the BAC artistic community.

Finalists and Honorable Mentions will be selected. Finalists receive studio visits from BAC staff which are used as a basis for granting one to three of the Finalists a solo or small group exhibition.

Please note, past winners, BAC board and staff are not eligible for this selection (however, they may exhibit in the Showcase.)
