ART ON THE EDGE:

19th ANNUAL JURIED EXHIBIT 2025

JURIED ART SHOW

A juried art show is organized in a time-honored way. An independent juror is chosen because of their involvement in the visual arts—either as a working artist, a gallery or museum curator, an art teacher, or all of the above. The juror is paid to select from submitted artwork those pieces that they think are the strongest. Inevitably, some submitted pieces are rejected. The local gallery committee has no input in selection or awards, and the juror’s decisions are final.

Get Involved

The Edge Center Gallery is staffed by community volunteers who feel passionately that visual arts enhance our quality of life in the Edge of the Wilderness.

Do you have bookkeeping, carpentry, or computer skills? We could use you. Would you like to help hang exhibits or organize workshops? We could use you. Are you good at writing grants? We could really use you!

Volunteers plan and select exhibits, set up and take down shows, and publicize exhibits in surrounding communities. They welcome visitors as friendly gallery hosts, prepare food for exhibit opening receptions, and help to bring out the best in the artwork in our gallery.

Looking to get involved at the Edge gallery? We'd love to hear from you! Contact us here or flag down any member of the gallery committee when you see us around town.

Your level of your commitment is up to you!

Artists in (their) Residence

Postponed gallery exhibits were hard on artists and audiences alike, but our artists (virtually) let us into their homes and studios while they continued to create. We are happy to announce our series: Artists in (their) Residence. Our first two episodes feature demonstrations by Duluth clay artist Ashley Hise and Bovey watercolor artist Keith Thompson.
