View the Northern National Virtual Retrospective.

Nicolet College and the Northern Arts Council are pleased to announce the Northern National Virtual Retrospective. The Northern National Art Competition is a 34-year tradition. While we have had to suspend the exhibition for two years due to the pandemic, we are excited to offer this virtual retrospective and opening celebration featuring a historical overview of the birth of this illustrious competition and its impact on the arts in the Northwoods. We will revisit the Northern National Archives and highlight prizewinning artists and memorabilia. We invite past artists to post their memories, comments, and personal updates on their career trajectories on our Nicolet Gallery Facebook page.
