The Arkansas Arts Council is now accepting submissions by Arkansas artists for the 24th annual 2011 Small Works on Paper exhibition. Works of art selected by a juror will be included in a year-long exhibition that travels to all areas across the state.

Deadline for entries is July 23rd. Arkansas artists may enter up to three works of art on paper in any medium (no larger than 24x24 inches) for a fee of $10 per entry or $25 for three entries. Entries will be juried by Patter Hellstrom, a prominent artist and curator based in San Francisco. Works must have been completed within the last two years.

Up to $2,000 will be available for juror-selected purchase awards, which become part of the Small Works on Paper permanent collection.  The entry form is available on the Arkansas Arts Council website at To be eligible to submit entries, artists must be members of the Arkansas Artist Registry, or they may join for free at time of entry. The Arkansas Artist Registry is a comprehensive online gallery of more than 500 Arkansas artists and their work. The Registry serves as a valuable resource for member artists to market their work and to connect to collectors, curators or anyone searching for artists and their art. Information concerning membership to the Registry may be found on the Arkansas Arts Council's website at www.arkansasarts.org
