FALL 2026 ART EXHIBIT
The theme for this year’s exhibit is: Amazing Grace
CALL FOR ARTISTS
Roswell Presbyterian Church (RPC) invites you to nurture your creativity and share your gifts with the community by submitting an entry to our Fall Art Exhibit.
All types of art or craft are appropriate for this show including:
Visual Art (painting, photography, fiber art, sculpture, woodworking, etc.)
Pre-recorded Performing Art (examples include music, dance, theatre, etc.)
Literary Art (such as poetry or prose - either ready for visual display or prerecorded with accompanying visual effects)
Artists and creatives are invited to reflect on the transformative power of
Amazing Grace
Whether you're a seasoned artist or simply enjoy expressing yourself through art or craft, we encourage you to share a piece that reflects the theme—exploring what God’s grace means to you. The subject of your piece might be an image that demonstrates an act of grace. Or, the subject may be less important than the process: just having the ability to create demonstrates how grace has been granted to you. Whether through color, texture, sound, or word, each work of art becomes a witness to the power of grace that still amazes, restores, and redeems.
Friday, July 24 – Submissions are due, including a digital image/version of the entry
Sunday, July 26 - Acceptance notifications with delivery instructions should have been received by the artist (via email) on this date, at the latest
Sunday, August 2 – Monday, August 3 – Art to be delivered to RPC

The statement should be at least a paragraph and no longer than four paragraphs. Inclusion of an accompanying scripture passage is optional.
