JURIED ART APPLICATION

JURIED ART APPLICATION

Join us for the 56th Annual Littleton Art Juried Artist ApplicationShow by filling out this Juried Art Application. We once again welcome back the prestigious juried art process, reintroduced in 2024 and drawing over 19,000 people to downtown Littleton, New Hampshire. The outdoor event offers a broad audience for artists.

With a rich history as a cornerstone of the New England art scene, this juried show has attracted accomplished artists from across the region since 1969, offering a vibrant platform to display their talents and connect with the community. Please be advised that this application is for juried artists only. If you wish to be part of the general vendor field at this event, please visit the General Vendor Application.

RETURNING THIS YEAR

Event organizers are offering two clusters in downtown Littleton: premium spots for juried fine art and another cluster for crafts, homemade items, and food vendors. The juried art field is reserved for select artists only, while the general vendor field is for anyone wishing to participate in the annual Littleton Art Show. General participants will not be considered for event awards but will reap the benefits of heavy foot traffic during peak foliage season.

Secure your spot and showcase your talent at our annual event.
