OVERVIEW

Spring Exhibit 2025

We are excited to announce our Call to Artists for our Spring Exhibit, 2025.  At the Suwanee Arts Center, our mission is to uplift artists by offering exciting opportunities through several curated exhibits throughout the year.

Artists are invited to submit their 2D and 3D artworks in any medium, emphasizing exceptional craftsmanship and thoughtful presentation.  ​

This Spring Exhibit is a judged event and will award over $1000. in cash prizes.
