2026 Appalachian Trail Art Show


 
 

Calling All Artists

Submit artwork for our 9th Annual Appalachian Trail Art Show!

Join our Appalachian Trail Art Show celebrating the Trail and the surrounding Great Outdoors. The A.T. is a designated National Scenic Trail that stretches 2,200 miles from Maine to Georgia. It’s right in our backyard, less than 5 miles away, with local hotspots like Bear’s Den and Raven Rocks. Help us to connect our community with the A.T. by sharing your art!

Register to guarantee display of up to three pieces, and drop off the physical piece ready to hang at the Round Hill Arts Center March 21-22, 2026. Registration for adults is $5 per piece for up to 3 pieces, and students are free.

We will hold an Artists’ Reception on Sunday, April 19th, and the artwork will be available for in-person viewing from April 1st through the 30th.

Drop off information will be emailed out approximately a week before the drop off dates.
