The Northern National Art Competition is a juried art exhibition co-sponsored by the Nicolet Art Gallery and The Northern Arts Council. Each year, hundreds of artists nationwide submit work to be considered for inclusion. The competition strives to showcase a cross section of contemporary art in a variety of two-dimensional mediums. The art is always both intellectually stimulating and visually exciting. This year’s judge is Scott Stulen, Director and President of the Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
