Each year we look forward to showcasing the artwork of our talented teaching artists and their students of all ages in our Faculty and Student Art Show. In this show, we highlight the many mediums and art forms students use to create incredible artwork throughout the year. They all have the opportunity to get at least one piece of artwork displayed in the show. Youth students who have achievements in our Certificate in Fine Arts (CiFA) program will be honored and recognized at the opening. One CiFA student’s artwork will be selected to become a part of our permanent collection, displayed for all to see in the lobby of the art center.
Students may submit up to three works of art for consideration that were created in a class or workshop at West Windsor Arts during the Summer 2024, Fall 2024, Winter 2025 or Spring 2025 sessions. We encourage all art forms, including drawing, painting, sculpture, poetry, photographs, digital and animation files. There is no cost for submission. Teaching artists may submit up to two works of art for consideration. Everyone will get at least one piece into the show.
Exhibition Opening: Friday, June 6, from 7 to 8:30 pm at West Windsor Arts
Exhibiting students and faculty will be encouraged to attend the event to talk about their work.
Medium: Any medium is acceptable, but the artwork must be original.
Artwork will be displayed both in the gallery and the lobby at the arts center.
1) Artwork needs to be an original piece that was created in a class, camp or workshop at WWA during Summer or Fall 2024, or Winter or Spring 2025. The Education Manager will review work and make selections for the show.
2) You will need to fill out our form and upload a photograph of your artwork.
Have the following information available before you fill out the online form:
3) Drop-off of artwork for Youth: We will accept art that is either matted or is in a frame. We encourage you to frame your work as it looks more professional. If you need assistance or recommendations with framing, please contact us.
4) Drop-off of artwork for Adults: The art must be framed with a wire across the back for hanging.
Submission of form for inclusion constitutes an agreement between the artist and West Windsor Arts Council (WWAC) to the following conditions set forth:
1) The exhibit will be displayed on our website, and in our galleries in a way that best showcases all the artists and art to be exhibited. Note: The selection of artwork to be included in the show is to be a collaborative effort between the student, Teaching Artist and Education Manager. Ultimately it is the decision of the Education Manager as to which works of art will be accepted. Everyone will get at least one work into the show.
2) Artwork included in the show must remain on exhibit until the conclusion of the final exhibit date.
3) Sale of Artwork: Work does not need to be for sale to be included; however, WWAC encourages the sale of exhibited work. WWAC receives a 30% commission on all work sold, and the artist receives the balance (70%) of sale (25%/75% for Artist Level Members). Please keep that in mind when pricing your artwork. WWAC is responsible for processing and collecting the sale proceeds for artwork and will remit payment for artwork by check to the artist within 21 business days of closing of the exhibit.
4) By participating in this exhibit, the artist gives WWAC permission to use the artist’s name, image, and images of accepted artwork in its publicity and marketing materials, and to photograph the artists and their work during events connected to this show.
Dates are subject to change, so please check the individual prospectus for details.
The prospectus is generally posted several months before the exhibition.

We believe that nurturing creativity doesn’t just happen in the studio, alone. It requires support through community, and there are many ways to make those connections at West Windsor Arts. Our volunteer Exhibition Committee not only keeps our walls adorned with art, but it is also a great place to meet and get to know other artists. If you are interested, fill out our volunteer form and join this amazing team!
