Connecticut Watercolor Society 74th Annual Exhibition

Greetings to All,

In case you have not heard, CWS has just posted notice of their 74th Annual Exhibition, to be held at Silpe Gallery in West Hartford, from July 5 through 15, 2014. The prospectus may be found on their website. Receiving is scheduled for June 28 and 29.

Every other year, the CWS early summer show is held at John Slade Ely House in New Haven, but they only exhibit in West Hartford in 2014. Since they do not do online jurying, you have to carry in your submissions and then pick up any non-accepted work on specified dates and times -- a fair bit of effort if you're driving from the shoreline to West Hartford -- all for the chance to have your artwork chosen to be exhibited for eleven days...

On the other hand, if your artwork is likely to be contending for top honors, they award two hefty prizes.
