What visitors can expect

The official flyer identifies four media: drawing, painting, photography and sculpture. This gives visitors a useful set of contrasts to explore, from a drawn mark to a three-dimensional form. Look for the choices that make a work distinctive, whether that is framing in a photograph, handling of paint or the surface of a sculpture.

The city has not published a confirmed exhibitor count or named artist roster on its event page. Let the actual exhibition guide your discoveries, and allow time to look through the work before returning to favorites. Contact the city for any admission or accessibility arrangements you need to confirm.

Information for local artists

The 2026 flyer opens participation to artists living within a 20-mile radius of St. Clairsville, in age groups 15–17 and 18 or older. Enrollment is due October 19 by 4:30 p.m. Artwork drop-off is listed for October 21, 4:30–6:30 p.m. Read the city’s current enrollment form and waiver for the complete entry requirements.

Planning your visit

Use 102 Fair Avenue for the exhibition. The separate City Building address, 100 N. Market Street, appears in instructions for returning enrollment paperwork and should not be confused with the show venue. Keep the 5–9 p.m. public-viewing window in mind when planning an after-work visit.
