Call for Artists: Royal Credit Union Foundation Gallery Juried Exhibition

ArtReach St. Croix, a nonprofit regional art organization serving the St. Croix Valley, is seeking submissions from artists interested in exhibiting their work in ArtReach’s Royal Credit Union Foundation Gallery.

Since 2010, ArtReach has been producing multi-artist exhibitions on the first floor of our converted 1858 house in Stillwater’s North Hill neighborhood—just blocks from historic Main Street. The exhibitions typically feature 3-5 artists. Accepted submissions to this call will fill 6 week long exhibitions between August 2027 and June 2028.

All forms of creative work will be considered. All two- and three- dimensional media, subject matters and styles are welcome including—but not limited to—painting, textile, printmaking, mixed media, photography, ceramics, sculpture, glass, jewelry, and book arts. Artists living and/or working in the Lower St. Croix Valley in Minnesota and Wisconsin are especially encouraged to submit applications.

ArtReach St. Croix strives to provide a barrier-free application process. As such, applications will be accepted through the online application form found at artreachstcroix.org/opportunities/ or by mail, in-person, or email using the PDF/paper application form.

If you have questions about the application process, ArtReach staff can provide coaching about application elements like artwork photography, selecting a body of work or writing an artist statement. If you have any questions, technical difficulties or would like to inquire about waiving the application fee, please contact Amy J Smithee-Harr at amy@artreachstcroix.org or call 651-439-1465.

All entries will be reviewed by a jury comprised of members of ArtReach St. Croix’s visual arts committee, staff and a guest juror. Accepted artists will be combined into exhibition groupings at the discretion of the visual arts committee. Application forms are available online at artreachstcroix.org or at ArtReach St. Croix, 224 N. 4^th Street, Stillwater, MN 55082 during gallery hours.
