Prospectus
We are thrilled to announce that The Art Center will be featured in the upcoming AAA Explorer Guide Summer Edition (June–September)!
As part of this exciting opportunity and expanded exposure, we are excited to announce that Across America 2026 will now welcome artists working in all mediums accepted, while continuing to celebrate the original theme of Across America.
Originally launched as a national photography exhibition, Across America 2026 has grown into a broader creative showcase inviting artists to explore and interpret the spirit, landscapes, culture, people, architecture, history, and visual stories of America through their own artistic voice and medium.
This exhibition is an opportunity to celebrate the diversity, beauty, energy, and complexity of America through art while showcasing the incredible creativity of artists from across the country.
We would love to include artists working in all forms of media and make this exhibition a dynamic and inspiring representation of contemporary American art.
