There's still time to see the 50th Juried Annual at the Miller Art Museum, now through Saturday November 8th. The Miller Art Museum has hosted the Juried Annual since 1975, with this year's exhibition marking its milestone 50th anniversary. The exhibit highlights a strong presence of Door County-based artists, alongside contributions from across Wisconsin.
Juror Fred Stonehouse, who is an artist and Associate Professor of Art at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, praised the exhibition as “a real testament to the excellent work that is being made across the state of Wisconsin.” Stonehouse was joined by fellow jurors Dan Anderson and Stephanie Trenchard in selecting the featured works.
Among the selections, you will find a diverse variety of artwork, ranging from watercolor paintings, to mixed media creations, and more. Together, these works form a vibrant tapestry that reflects the depth and creativity of Wisconsin’s contemporary art scene.
The Miller Art Museum is open to the public every day except for Sundays, from 10 am - 5 pm, with extended hours on Mondays until 7 pm. Admission is free. Visit www.millerartmuseum.org for more information.
