About our Annual Juried Exhibitions:
Locally Grown is an annual juried art show that is open to all artists over the age of 18 living in Apache and Navajo counties. It is held in the fall semester and showcases a wide variety of artwork from both students and community members. A different professionally practicing artist from outside the area is chosen to jury this exhibition each year.
The Annual High School Art Show is a juried exhibition held every spring semester that showcases a selection of artwork from high school students in Apache and Navajo counties. Students do not need to be currently enrolled in an art class to enter and homeschooled students are encouraged to enter as well. Students in their senior year of high school have the opportunity to win awards in the form of NPC Art Tuition Scholarships. The Annual High School Art Show is juried by NPC art faculty.
The NPC Student Art Show is a juried exhibition held at the end of every spring semester that showcases a selection of artwork from NPC students. A variety of awards are presented to students at a closing reception where students, faculty friends, and family celebrate the artistic accomplishments of NPC students. The NPC Student Art Show is juried by the NPC art faculty.
