This winter, the Adams County Historical Society invites artists from Adams County and the surrounding area to submit their work for consideration to be featured in a month long exhibition in the cultural center at the museum. Artists with work that features or is inspired by Adams County will also be considered. While compensation is not provided for the artists selected, you will have an opportunity to list your work for sale if you choose as well as promoting your brand.

There will be two events promoted by the museum to exhibit the work and pieces will be on display to museum visitors during regular hours.


If you are interested in submitting your work for consideration, please send an email to Veronica@AdamsCountyMuseum.com with the following information:

  • Your name, phone number and city of residence

  • The title and description of the work

  • Your or your artwork’s connection to Adams County

  • Dimensions of your piece

  • Two to three full color photos of the work

Any other relevant information you would like to include

​Dates for the show are still to be determined but will occur between February and March of 2027. Selections will be announced in January. If you would like to submit multiple works for consideration, please send them in separate email. Invitations to participate will be limited to quality and feasibility of work to display in the designated space.
