Call for Art

Faculty and Student Art Show

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.

The full prospectus and entry form will be available here on April 9, 2025.

About Exhibitions

West Windsor Arts establishes an annual calendar of exhibits that feature both emerging and established artists from our region and beyond. The Exhibition Committee selects themes based on media, community interest, tie-ins to events, and educational value.

The exhibits we present each year focus on high artistic quality art that showcases diverse themes and genres. For each exhibit the committee selects a juror from notable regional art educators, professional artists and museum/gallery directors, who choose works consistent with their standards of excellence and our artistic selection criteria.‍

  • Competent use of media and artistic technical skill
  • Artistic sensitivity and emotional impact
  • Creative and innovative work to educate the public
  • Wall appeal to attract the public
