Out to Sea

June 4 – August 1, 2026

Artists Reception on First Friday June 5

The sea covers three-fourths of our planet, no wonder it’s a profound artistic subject for power, emotion and mystery. The ocean is alive with brilliant reflections of light, a vast atmospheric backdrop with tides of natural power. Artists explore the sea in ways that arouse both symbolism and memory. It is a muse, an ebb and flow of deep feelings and deeper mysteries, a symbol of purity, tranquility and power…and also danger, risk and mortality.

Art: The Meek Shall Inherit Ralph Broussard

Small Works
Serenity

May 1 – June 27, 2026 

Serenity in artwork is represented by qualities both vibrant and serene. It might be captured in a quiet moment in nature, rich with colors and details. Or it might be a state of calmness, peace, and tranquility. Some might describe such artistic tranquility as a “visual sanctuary,” one that offers mental balance, reflection and even relaxation to the viewer.

Small Works: Call for Entries

Red, White & Blue

July 2 – August 29, 2026

Submit artwork June 28 11am-3pm

What do the colors red, white, and blue mean to you? Do they remind you of the founding of our country 250 years ago, patriotism, and the American flag? Or do they remind you of red Kites, blue skies, or white flowers?

We invite artists to submit artwork in any medium up to 12″ in any direction, including frames, predominantly featuring the colors red, white, and/or blue. Each participating artist may submit up to two entries. Artists will receive 60% of sales and SRAC retains 40%.
