Your Entry Fee for the Fleur-de-lis Exhibit

ENTRY FEE: $20 per entry or $50 for 3 entries. The entry fee is non-refundable. All entry fees will go toward awards, outreach projects, and exhibition expenses.

About the Project:

FLEUR-DE-LIS: The fleur-de-lis has been woven into the identity of Mobile since its earliest days as a French colony. This call for entries invites artists to explore and reinterpret this iconic symbol through their own creative lens. The only requirement: the fleur-de-lis must be a central, intentional element of the artwork.

ARTISTS: Open to all artists (18 years of age or older).

ENTRY PROCESS: All entries be submitted electronically by midnight, December 31, 2025.

Artwork may be 2- or 3-dimensional and done in any medium. Please note that you may be asked to provide display infrastructure (pedestal, monitor) for your work. Each artist may submit up to three (3) entries.

This is a juried exhibition. If your entry is not selected, it by no means is a statement about the quality of your artwork. Jurors look at various criteria, including what will create a cohesive exhibit.

RECEPTION AND AWARDS: The opening reception will be Thursday, January 15, 2026 from 5:30-7:30 pm.

Awards will be given for Best In Show ($100), Most Original Use of Color ($50), Most Original Use of Shape ($50), and Most Original Use of Medium ($50).

Please note that Central Midtown will not retain a commission for any sales of your work. All sales will be between the artist and the purchaser.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact galleries@centralmidtown.org.
