White Bear Lake Center for the Arts Opening Thursday, February 19, 2026, 6:00-8:00 PM Award Ceremony at 7:00 PM

Happy to say that I've got two very different pieces going to the 52nd Annual Northern Lights Juried Art Exhibition!

I submitted a total of three pieces and was fortunate to get two of them into this very competitive show even though they couldn't be more different from each other. We'll have to see who the judges are this time and if either of them are chosen for an award.

I'm planning to attend the reception and I hope you will too!

Details down below.

White Bear Center for the Arts' treasured Northern Lights Juried Art Exhibition is back for its 52nd year!

While the show has evolved over time, its soul remains unchanged: it continues to be a reputable art exhibition that draws talent from across Minnesota and neighboring states, judged by artists with deep knowledge in their craft. All artists are invited to submit works in any 2D or 3D medium, including but not limited to drawing, painting, fiber arts, ceramics, photography, and sculpture.
