Short Description

The New England Regional Juried Exhibition is a juried show featuring the best of representational painting, drawing, and sculpture by regional artists who work in the realist tradition.

The exhibition will be on view in the historic President’s Gallery at the Guild’s Newbury Street location, which features a skylight to allow viewing of artworks in natural light.

Selected artists will have the opportunity to exhibit where the great artists of the Boston School showed their work

Eligibility

Accepted painting and drawing media include oil, acrylic, watercolor, gouache, pastel, graphite, charcoal, scratchboard, pen and ink, and pencil. Please check if using any other medium.

Prints (including giclées), kits, and AI generated artworks are ineligible. Using a print as an underpainting is also prohibited. The Guild has a preference for work done from life rather than from photographs. Although works done using photography are not excluded, preference is given to work done from life, especially when the jurors are making the awards.
