2024 Art Acquisitions

Art Acquisitions Purchase Exhibition

2024 MEA/MAEA Art Exhibition

Exciting changes are in store for the 2024 MEA/MAEA Art Acquisitions Purchase Exhibition. This year’s 60th annual event features digital jury submission and an easier drop-off and pick-up process for selected works.

No entry fee is required, and the deadline for submitting entries is March 11.

Any member in good standing of MEA or MEA-Retired is eligible to submit up to two original artworks in a wide range of mediums via this online entry form. Juried awards include Best of Show, Honorable Mention, Juror’s Choice Award, MAEA Purchase Award, and MEA Purchase Awards.

Artists whose works are selected will be notified March 22. Selected artwork will be delivered to MEA headquarters on April 22 for installation on April 27, and the exhibition will conclude on June 9. The exhibition is a longstanding joint venture between MEA and the Michigan Art Education Association.
