55th Annual All Florida Juried Competition and Exhibition
The Museum’s All Florida exhibition annually showcases the best prominent and emerging Florida artists working in all media today. As the state’s oldest annual juried competition, the Museum’s All Florida has introduced the work of thousands of Florida artists – emerging, underrecognized, and established younger and mid-career artists. Representing a dynamic contemporary cross-section of our state’s talent, the 55th All Florida Juried Exhibition reinforces the Museum’s commitment to Florida artists, provides professional exhibition opportunities for emerging artists, and reveals a provocative glimpse — through Florida artists’ eyes — of the state-of-the-art today. More than 1,300 artworks were submitted for the 54th Annual All Florida, and 76 artists were selected by Juror Louis Grachos from the Albright-Knox Gallery, Buffalo, New York.

Florida's best prominent and emerging artists compete each year to be included in Florida's oldest statewide juried show. More than 100 entries, including painting, sculpture, photography, installation and video are selected for this "must-see" contemporary cross-section of our state's talent.
