SUBMIT ART

This exhibit, a public art project of Wayne County Arts Alliance (WCAA), is a high-visibility opportunity for artists from around the world to showcase their artwork.

More than five million cars drive past Windows on the Wall in Northeast Pennsylvania each year. “The Wall” is a physical display of twelve large-scale vinyl reproductions of horizontal artwork. The work of each selected artist is printed on an individual 11 x 17 foot vinyl panel. Chosen artwork is also displayed virtually as a permanent feature on the WCAA website https://waynecountyartsalliance.org/windows-on-the-wall/, which includes links to artist websites and/or social media account(s)
There is no charge to artists for reproduction/hanging/supplies related to the exhibit.

The current twelve panels will be on display until June 2027. The next twelve panels of newly selected artwork will be unveiled in June 2027 and remain on display till June 2028.

2027-2028 Theme: TBA December 2026

Entry Requirements

1. SUBMISSION: All WoW entries MUST be submitted through the CaFÉ portal:
   https://artist.callforentry.org/festivals_unique_info.php?ID=16750.
   Entrants must create an account at
   https://artist.callforentry.org/register.php.
   There is no charge to register.
2. ART: Entrants may submit up to three (3) JPEG images for consideration through CaFÉ. Images must be at least 1,200 pixels on the longest side. Each file can be up to 5 MB. Do not submit more than 3 images.
   1. NOTE: Selected entrants will be required to submit a HIGH resolution TIFF image for printing (minimum 300 dpi and 5,000 pixels on longest side), and must supply this digital file within two (2) weeks from notification (final file received no later than May 11, 2026). This will be done separately from CaFÉ (e.g. via Dropbox, Google Drive, thumb drive, etc.). Additional information will be provided to chosen artists.
3. CRITERIA: Artistic selections must be HORIZONTAL in orientation (wider than high). Jurying is based on artistic quality, interpretation of theme, and graphic strength. WoW is most often viewed from a distance, so strong graphic interest is important to be effective. All submissions must allow for minimal cropping, as needed during reproduction process.
4. ENTRY FEE(S)/CHARGES: The cost is $35 for up to 3 entries. Selected artists will NOT pay for art reproduction and display on WoW, or for online promotion of work. Upon completion of the exhibit, artists may keep their own WoW panel, free of charge (must pay shipping or arrange local pickup). Unclaimed panels become the sole property of WCAA.
5. STUDENT ENTRIES: In an effort to promote the visual arts and encourage future artists, one (1) of the twelve (12) panels on exhibit annually is reserved for a primary education student entrant up to and including 12th grade. Student entrants will be asked for additional information as a part of the CaFÉ submission process to identify educational level and institution. Student credentials will be validated as a part of the selection process.
6. ENTRY DATES: Call opens Monday, February 1, 2027. Deadline is midnight (MT) on Wednesday, March 31, 2027. Entrants selected will be notified by end of day (EST) on Monday, April 20, 2027.
7. ELIGIBILITY: Entrants previously selected for project years 2024, 2025, or 2026 are not eligible for WoW 2027. Entrants who do not adhere to the above rules will not be considered and forfeit any associated entry fees.
