Original Multi-media Art by various Artists in the Central Region.

The Portage & District Arts Centre is hosting the 32nd Annual Central Region Juried Art Exhibition. This juried exhibition showcases a rich and diverse sampling of artwork created by artists from the Central Region of Manitoba. The Portage & District Arts Centre welcomes 49 artists who reside within the Central Region that have entered 124 works of art into this years juried art exhibition.

The show provides an opportunity for artists of all levels, 14 years of age or older to exhibit their work in a professional setting and receive a juror’s critique.  Three artists/jurors review each entry and provide written comments to the artists. Jurors will select approximately forty pieces that will tour throughout the Central Region from June to August. Several pieces from this exhibit will also be chosen to be part of the September, Rural & Northern Art Show at the Assiniboine Park Pavilion Gallery Museum in Winnipeg.

The Central Region Juried Art Exhibition continues as an annual event in support of the artists and their continued growth due to the generous support of the Manitoba Arts Council and the Department of Culture, Heritage and Tourism.
