Every artist should have a chance to have their work in a gallery. The Presidents’ Show was created just for this.
The Presidents’ Show 2026
September 26 - November 7
The 2025 Show was a great success! Nearly half of the members who entered pieces sold their work. Many of those were brand new members!
All members are guaranteed one piece in the show and may submit up to 3 entries. Take advantage of this incredible opportunity to exhibit your work at the Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts in Ojai, California.
Keep an eye out later this year for call for entries. Meanwhile, keep creating!
