Art About Agriculture Touring Exhibition 2026: Field Report invites submissions of fine art and craft that explores visual storytelling inspired by food, fiber and natural resources. Whether rooted in personal experience, research, legacy, mythology or a fleeting moment, Pacific Northwest artists are encouraged to share their agricultural narratives. These stories can be fully communicated within the work, supported heavily by the artist statement (up to 400 words), or unfold anywhere in between. The 5-person blind jury will aspire to curate a diverse selection representing a wide range of creative mediums and agricultural topics.
Student scholarships and awards! Students enrolled at Oregon State University, Josephy Center for Art and Culture, and Blue Mountain Community College are encouraged to submit! The jury will select up to five student artworks for inclusion in the tour. Students from the OSU College of Agricultural Sciences with chosen work will receive a $200 scholarship from the College of Agricultural Sciences’ Academic Programs Office. Other applicable students with work selected by the jury will receive a $200 honorarium from the Art About Agriculture Program to help with materials, framing and shipping expenses.
All artworks selected for the tour are eligible for purchase award consideration.
The 2026 tour is currently scheduled to visit Giustina Gallery at Oregon State University (Corvallis, OR/OSU), Josephy Center for Arts and Culture (Joseph, OR), Grants Pass Museum of Art (Grants Pass, OR), and the Betty Feves Memorial Gallery at Blue Mountain Community College (Pendleton, OR).
