DEADLINE June 13th at 11:59PM
MuseArt Terre Haute is delighted to announce our 4th Anniversary Art Exhibition! We invite artists of all levels to showcase their talents and compete for the chance to have work displayed at MuseArt Terre Haute from July until September 2026, among other prizes. This year’s theme, "Give Me Liberty," is in honor of our country’s 250th Anniversary. We reflect on the principles our nation was founded on, on the promise afforded to all who came to call this land home. So, we request artwork that answers this question: “What does Liberty mean to you?”
