Artists, age 16 and older, of all skill levels are encouraged to enter the eighth annual Northwest Ohio
(NoWOH) Community Art Exhibition, hosted by the Bowling Green State University Art Galleries. Online
registration is open now until July 1.
The show will open at 7 p.m. July 17 with a gallery talk by award juror Jason Franz, executive director
and chief curator at Manifest Gallery in Cincinnati, followed by a reception.
NoWOH hours are 6-8 p.m. Thursday evenings, and from 1-4 p.m. Friday through Sunday. The exhibit will
continue until Aug. 1.
NoWOH supports regional artists by providing an opportunity for them to show their work in a professional
setting.
Artists are encouraged to preregister online to avoid waiting in line when they drop off their artwork on
July 11 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Further information regarding how to enter can be found at
www.NowohArtShow.org.
Artists who display their work at the exhibition are eligible to win up to $1,500 in cash prizes and gift
certificates. Among the awards are The Andersons Best of Show award, the Kiwanis Young Artist Awards and
a People’s Choice award.
