2026 Fall Members Juried Exhibition

Wayne Art Center's autumn members' show in the Davenport Gallery outside Philadelphia, juried both for entry and for awards. Eligible media run from painting and works on paper through ceramics, glass, fiber and jewellery to photography and 3D printing, so it is one of the few regional all-media shows where lens-based work sits alongside craft. Each member may submit exactly one original work made after 1 January 2024 and not previously shown at WAC — no second CaFÉ accounts, no exceptions. The juror is Peter Van Dyck, a Philadelphia painter who trained at the Florence Academy of Art and has taught at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, with solo shows at John Pence Gallery, Eleanor Ettinger Gallery and The Grenning Gallery. Open to Wayne Art Center 2026/2027 adult members aged 18 and over; membership can be taken out before applying. All accepted work must be hand-delivered to and collected from the centre — nothing shipped. Notifications 22 August, hand delivery 1 September, exhibition 8 September – 3 October 2026, with a reception and awards presentation on 20 September.
