The Fairbanks Arts Association Visual Arts Committee schedules art exhibits in the Bear Gallery: solo shows, group exhibits, three juried exhibits--held annually for artists living in the Interior Alaska, traveling exhibits, and group exhibits coordinated by borough school district. 
 
Juried exhibits for artists of the Interior include the following: Annual 64th Parallel Contemporary Fine Art Exhibition, Patterns of Influence Exhibit, and the Interior Artisans Exhibit. It is our objective to bring jurors in from outside the Fairbanks area to give Interior artists the opportunity to connect with a broader arts community. 
 
Our one curated exhibit, Quilt Alaska is a biennial exhibit sponsored by the Cabin Fever Quilter's Guild. Annual and biennial juried traveling exhibits include the Alaska Photography Center' Rarefied Light and Anchorage Museum of History and Art's Earth, Fire, and Fiber and All Alaska Juried Art Exhibition. 
 
Up with Art, an annual show produced in March by the North Star Borough School District is a juried art exhibit for elementary, middle and high school students.
 
Each year the Visual Arts Committee selects gallery shows for the next two years with a Portfolio Review. Deadline for submissions to Portfolio Review is always October 31. 
The Visual Arts Committee meets in the Bear Gallery on the 3rd floor of the Alaska Centennial Center for the Arts in Pioneer Park. For the next scheduled meeting, questions or prospectus please call 456-6485 ext. 227
