Gettysburg, PA — The Adams County Arts Council (ACAC) has announced the artists selected for its 22nd Annual Juried Art Exhibition, one of the region’s premier showcases of contemporary visual art. This year, 110 artists submitted 289 works for consideration. Juror Philip Lindsey selected 49 pieces for exhibition and awards consideration, with cash prizes ranging from $200 to $1,000.
For the first time in the exhibition’s history, ACAC will host the entire exhibition experience — including the Awards Ceremony and Toast the Artists Celebration — inside its own Arts Education Center, located at 125 S. Washington Street in Gettysburg. The exhibition will transform the Center’s Reception Hall, Studio, and Gallery spaces into a vibrant showcase of regional artistic talent, underscoring ACAC’s continued investment in elevating the Arts Education Center as a destination for arts and culture in Adams County.
Sponsored by Scott & Co. Fine Jewelers and WellSpan Health, the opening celebration on Friday, June 5, 2026, is free and open to the public. Previously a ticketed event, Toast the Artists will now welcome the broader community to celebrate the selected artists and experience the exhibition in a festive atmosphere featuring signature cocktails, heavy hors d’oeuvres, and live music by the Buzz Jones Quintet. RSVPs are requested.
Event schedule for Friday, June 5:
- 4:30 p.m. — Doors Open / Exhibition Viewing
- 6:00 p.m. — Awards Ceremony
- 6:30–8:30 p.m. — Toast the Artists Celebration featuring live music, signature cocktails, and hors d’oeuvres
In addition to the juried exhibition, the Juried Art Exhibition Committee selected additional works from submitted entries for display in the Gallery at the Arts Education Center, further expanding opportunities for artists to share their work with the public.
The exhibition will remain on display June 5 through June 27, 2026. Exhibition hours are Wednesdays through Fridays from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
