Event History
The Americas Juried Competitions originated in 1970 as the National Print and Drawing Show. It was retitled Works on Paper in 1986 and when opened to international entries in 1993, it became Americas 2000. In 1995, the all media category was added. Fifty years after the original call for entries, Americas 2000 is attracting world-wide contemporary art with two alternating annual exhibitions, All Media and Paperworks. We are grateful to the many, many artists who have shared their work and their passion for art with our audiences throughout the years.
Works in any medium, traditional or experimental, including photographs, qualify. Work must have been completed within the last two years and not previously exhibited in an Americas 2000 exhibition. Entries will be judged from high resolution electronic images. Cash and purchase awards. Solo show for Best of Show. Entry fee: 2 entries $30; additional entries $5 each. Maximum of five entries per artist. 30% commission on sales. Juror: Zig Jackson, Savannah, GA.
