• Lobby section 1: 17.5 feet wide by 8.6 feet high

• Lobby section 2: 6.5 feet wide by 9.8 feet high

• Display cases: Limited to three-dimensional art, with a maximum size of 4 inches by 4 inches

The Oswego Cultural Arts Commission is seeking work that reflects the diversity of artistic styles and mediums. Artists of all ages are encouraged to apply. Selected pieces will be chosen with consideration to the public setting; and artists are welcome to display works for sale, with contact and pricing details provided as part of the exhibit.

Artists interested in participating must submit a completed Art at Village Hall application, which includes the ability to upload proposals and images of the artwork to be considered. The deadline for submissions is Nov. 1.

While artists are not compensated for exhibiting their work, all selected artists will be recognized at an Oswego Village Board meeting, offering further public acknowledgment of their contributions.
