B24: Wiregrass Biennial
July 19 - September 28, 2024
The Wiregrass Biennial is a juried exhibition open to all artists living and working in the Southeast over 18 years of age. WMA’s call for artists began in December 2023 for submissions of original work completed within the last three years, and yielded a record number of applications from artists, which were juried by regional arts professionals: Amanda Thompson, Meredith Lynn, longtime art educator and consultant at AKT Artful in Tallahassee, Florida, and Carrie Jaxson, director and curator at the International Art Center at Troy University. B24: Wiregrass Biennial features work from 40 artists from 7 states.
B24: Wiregrass Biennial is a survey of works being created by artists from across the Southeast region, and the group show strengthens the arts community in the Southeast by bringing regional emerging and established contemporary artists to a local Wiregrass audience. For area residents and visitors, this year’s biennial will continue to build on the museum’s reputation for showcasing work from artists from different backgrounds through diverse mediums – from painting and sculpture, to installation and multimedia, large-scale works, and more – offering visitors the opportunity to learn from and connect with the art and artists of our time.
