Competition


18th Annual Banner

If you are a Central Iowa artist impacted by a disability or mental health, you are invited to participate in Momentum: Works of Growth and Recovery! Our annual exhibition features art by artists impacted by disabilities. A local guest juror will judge the competition, and artists selected by the juror will have their work featured in the exhibition. 

Save the date for October 7th, 2022. This year our exhibition will be held at Mainframe Studios from 5-8pm with a special artist only preview from 3-5pm. We will also have a Virtual Exhibition open the month of October. 

How to submit art to the competition:

Submissions are accepted by online application between August 1, 2022, and closes September 2, 2022. The link will be posted here on August 1. For any questions or assistance with submitting artwork, please contact Kelsey at kelseyk@teamcsa.org. 

Photographing your art:

Before completing the application, take quality photos of your art and save them to your phone or computer to upload into your online application. Additionally, we have links for you to use as resources to understand how to photograph your artwork at home. The Momentum Studio will be open on select days during the submission time to assist with photographing your art.
