Collective Visions Gallery’s CVG Show is a major state wide competitive art exhibition that attracts top artists and gained recognition across Washington State. The dates for the show have been expanded for 2012 to take place January 28 through February 26, 2012. Supporters include the Kitsap Credit Union, The Doctor’s Clinic, Kitsap Eye Physicians, KPS Health Plans, Soriano Brothers Investments, West Sound Arts Council, The Artists Edge Art Stores and others. All of the 2,400 square feet of exhibition space in the gallery will be devoted to this event for the duration of the show. The exhibition juror will be Kathleen Moles, curator of exhibitions at the Museum of Northwest Art (MoNA), in La Conner. Prizes will total over $6,000 in cash and purchase awards.

Exhibition coordinator Alan Newberg states: “The gallery is especially pleased to have an outstanding juror from one of the leading art museums in Washington. Kathleen’s stature and vision is sure to attract a diverse and exciting array of artists and art work that will keep this event fresh and stimulating. The 2011 CVG Show was an outstanding success that included an impressive array of 128 artworks selected from nearly 800 pieces that were entered into the competition by artists from 68 cities across the state. We are confident the Fifth annual CVG Show will match or beat the high quality of the previous shows. This event attracts art lovers, buyers, educators and artists from the city, county and the wider Puget Sound region and beyond.”
