The Emeryville Celebration of the Arts is now accepting submissions for the 40th Annual Exhibition.
The CaFÉ digital screening platform will be used for the virtual juror selection process. There is no fee to submit artwork; however, artists selected to exhibit will be required to pay a one-time $75 exhibition fee. This fee applies to all participating artists. There will also be no gallery sitting or shift requirements for exhibitors this year.

Independent Curator and Exhibition Designer Kathleen Hanna will curate the 40th Annual Exhibition. She will be joined by Phil Linhares, retired Chief Curator of Art for the Oakland Museum of California, and Donna Seagar, Principal at Donna Seager Fine Arts and Artists Books. The deadline for artist submissions is 11:59pm, Pacific Daylight Time on Tuesday, June 30, 2026. Whether this is your first or 40th year attending the show, Emery Arts invite you to join in celebrating the diversity and richness of the Bay Area’s art community. Looking forward to seeing you again this year!
