Belmar Library Hosts 2018 Teen Art Exhibit

Jefferson County teen creatives encouraged to submit their works of art

The Belmar Library's Teen Advisory Board hosts its 2018 Teen Art Exhibit. Jefferson County artists between the ages of 12-18 are invited to submit original art to be considered for the exhibit on display in August.

There's no theme this year so artists can choose their favorite piece to share. For large artwork, we ask that a photograph be submitted for review. All mediums are accepted, including, but not limited to photography, paintings, drawings, 3D Objects, ceramics, digital art and more.

Artwork does not need to be mounted and Belmar's Teen Advisory Board will jury the submissions on July 26.

Call for Artists: July 1 - 25

Deadline and Details: July 25
Photos of large pieces should be emailed to Lisa.Dibbern@jeffcolibrary.org. Other pieces can be dropped off at the Belmar Library.

Each submission must include:

  • Artist’s Name
  • Age
  • Grade
  • School Name
  • Title
  • Medium
  • Dimensions
  • Year of creation

You can submit up to five original pieces. Selected artists will be notified by July 29. All pieces must be dropped off at the Belmar Library by noon on August 1 for installation. Art will be available for pickup beginning September 1.

Artist Reception: Tuesday, August 7, 6 - 8 PM
The public is welcome to celebrate the amazing art with refreshments at a reception. 

Exhibition: August 1 - 31
Art will be on display throughout the month of August.
