Gallery Ring THE HOLIDAY ADVENT SHOW Art Contest

Gallery Ring is celebrating the upcoming holidays with the annual HOLIDAY ADVENT SHOW and draw! You are invited to participate! This is a complimentary contest and exhibition. The subject matter is the choice of the artist. The work does not have to be holiday-themed. All entrants will also be entered into a draw to win 1 of 10 Free-Entry Vouchers. One artwork will be selected and revealed on the website every day starting December 1st until December 24th, 2026 ending in a group show of the best 24 artworks. Visitors will join in the fun and scratch the daily calendar box themselves to uncover the surprise artwork — the respective day’s Official Selection. The deadline to submit work is Thursday, December 3rd 2026. One artwork per artist is free to submit. There is an optional $20 US fee for 1-2 additional artworks if desired. 2D artwork including photography/digital is eligible. The Diamond, Sapphire, Ruby, Emerald Snowflake Awards, 6 Crystal Snowflake Awards and 14 Official Selections are available.
