We are so excited to announce the Second Annual Juried Art Show at Picket Fence Art Studio—one of our favorite events of the year and a true celebration of the creativity, talent, and artistic voice within our growing community.
Last year’s inaugural show brought together an incredible group of artists and quickly became a highlight for both participants and visitors. (Picket Fence Art Studio) This year, we are building on that momentum and expanding the exhibition to create an even more dynamic and inspiring experience.
✨ What’s New This Year
For 2026, we are opening the door to more ambitious work by expanding the size limit to include pieces up to 16 x 20 inches. This allows artists to explore stronger compositions, richer storytelling, and a greater sense of presence on the wall.
We are also continuing to refine the show into a thoughtfully curated exhibition—one that highlights both technical skill and authentic artistic voice.
🖼️ Why This Show Matters
At Picket Fence Art Studio, our mission has always been to create a welcoming space where artists can grow, connect, and share their work. (Picket Fence Art Studio)
This juried show is a natural extension of that vision:
- A chance to exhibit in a professional gallery setting
- An opportunity to gain recognition through a juried process
- A way to connect with collectors, fellow artists, and the broader community
Whether you are an emerging artist or more established in your practice, this show is designed to support and celebrate your journey.
🏆 A Professional, Elevated Experience
Selected artists will be featured in our Woodinville gallery, with awards presented at the opening reception on June 27, 2026.
🌿 Rooted in Community
One of the most special parts of last year’s show was the sense of connection—artists meeting other artists, families bringing friends, and collectors discovering work they truly loved.
That’s what makes this more than just an exhibition.
It’s a gathering of people who believe in creativity, who are willing to share their work, and who support one another in the process.

💛 A Personal Note
As an artist myself, I know how meaningful it is to put your work out into the world. It takes courage, vulnerability, and a willingness to grow.
This show is about honoring that process—and creating a space where your work can be seen, appreciated, and celebrated.
We can’t wait to see what you submit.
