2028 Exhibition Gallery Application

The Lanesboro Arts Exhibition Gallery features five exhibitions each year in a variety of visual arts media.

The Lanesboro Arts Exhibition Gallery seeks artworks that enrich both artist and community and exhibit a unique vision, original voice, and quality craftsmanship. These pieces should be diverse and accessible to a wide range of people.

For over 30 years, the Lanesboro Arts Juried Sales and Exhibition Galleries have served as public gathering spaces where artists are uplifted and visitors are inspired. In line with Lanesboro Art’s mission to serve as a regional catalyst for artistic excellence and educational development in providing diverse art experiences for all ages, the Galleries present exhibitions, programming, and sales opportunities that initiate discussion and connection.

Artists selected for the Exhibition Gallery are chosen through a demonstration of clear artistic vision, quality craftsmanship, thought provoking qualities, diverse representation, and alignment with Lanesboro Arts’ values.

The Exhibition Gallery typically hosts five solo or group shows each year, with each show running for approximately 8 weeks. The Exhibition Gallery presents works that enrich both artist and community by initiating discussion and connection.

To view current and upcoming exhibitions, visit the Exhibition Gallery page.
