AnyScapes : Galloway Library Exhibit Online Registration

The Absecon Cultural Arts Alliance is pleased to announce our next exhibit at the Galloway Library.

The show’s theme, “AnyScapes,” invites artists to explore place, atmosphere, and imagined worlds through 2D artwork. Landscapes, seascapes, cityscapes, cloudscapes, dreamscapes, and every variation in between are welcome. From realistic to abstract, grounded to surreal, this exhibit celebrates how artists interpret space, environment, and mood.

All 2D mediums are accepted, including painting, drawing, printmaking, and photography.

Artwork will be on display from January 31 through March 28, 2026. This is a 2 month exhibit, and artists should plan accordingly.

Submissions are open to all artists, with an emphasis on originality and creative expression. Whether your work captures a familiar horizon or an imagined realm, AnyScapes offers a space to share your vision and invite viewers into your world.

Drop-off for the exhibit will take place at the Galloway Library on Saturday, January 31, 2026, from 10:00am to 12:00pm, and is open to all 2D works that fit the theme.

All artwork must be properly framed, wired, and ready to hang. The library uses a cleat system, so all pieces must have at least 6 inches of hanging wire attached. Entry fees are $10 per piece, with a limit of three pieces per artist. Space is limited, so artists are asked to keep size and weight reasonable. Oversized or excessively heavy works may be declined at check-in at committee discretion due to space constraints. Every effort will be made to hang works on the main gallery wall, with overflow displayed in the meeting room immediately to the left of the entrance across from the restrooms.

Pick-up of artwork will be held on Saturday, March 28, 2026.

Work will be judged by an independent juror, with results announced on social media. Awards will be presented to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place overall winners, with monetary prizes dependent on participation.

Online registration is available at abseconarts.com.

Volunteers to assist with receiving and hanging artwork are always appreciated. We look forward to seeing the many worlds you bring to life.
