24th Annual ART IN THE COUNTY Juried Exhibition and Sale
Presented by the Prince Edward County Arts Council and WELCH LLP, ART IN THE COUNTY (AITC) is an annual juried exhibition and sale recognized as the premier art exhibition in Eastern Ontario.
Since its inception in 1993, the show has grown in scope and stature, showcasing the highest quality works of art by Prince Edward County artists and artisans. A signature event of the summer season, the exhibition attracts thousands of visitors, generates meaningful opportunities for County artists, and provides economic benefits for County businesses.
Three renowned Canadian art professionals will serve as jurors for this year’s exhibition. The jurors are solely responsible for the show’s content, as well as selecting the five Jurors’ Awards and five Honorable Mention Awards. The People’s Choice Award is determined by visitor ballots and will be presented at the close of the exhibition.
Art from an impressive range of media is showcased including paintings in oil, encaustic, watercolour and acrylic; and works in glass, fibre, ceramics, pottery, mixed media, photography, wood, fabric art and sculpture.
