Art in the County 2025

Presented annually by the Prince Edward County Arts Council, Art in the County is a juried art exhibition and sale that showcases over 100 original works of art by Prince Edward County artists in a wide range of media, including watercolour, acrylic, oil, and encaustic paintings, sculpture, textiles, wood, photography, ceramics, glass, and more. The 32nd edition will take place at the County Arts Lab June 27th – July 13th, 2025, and will be simultaneously presented online at artinthecounty.com.

This year’s esteemed jurors are Jim Bravo (Painter and Muralist, Toronto), Nicole Collins (Interdisciplinary Artist & Associate Professor of Material and Visual Culture in the Drawing & Painting program at OCADU, Toronto), and Michelle LaVallee (Director of Indigenous Ways and Decolonization Department and Curatorial Initiatives at the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa). Jurors are solely responsible for the show’s content, as well as selecting one Jurors’ Choice Award and three Honorable Mention Awards.

The jurors will also participate in a speaker series prior to the opening weekend as part of the 2nd Annual Art in the County Art Symposium at the County Arts Lab on Sunday June 22 beginning at 2PM. Learn more about the symposium and register here. Sliding scale pricing is available.
