Visual Harvest 2026
Stowe Conservancy is the new location for the annual Visual Harvest juried show and competiton. Stowe is thought to be among other fine arts museums in Charlotte like the Mint Museum, Bechtler Museum, and McColl Center but its gallery is designed to be experienced alongside the landscape rather than as a conventional gallery collection.
The show theme features art that focuses on any subject that is visual and/or tactile, drawing the viewer to use their imagination and senses.
All accepted pieces will be for sale in the Gallery space. Gaston County Art Guild actively pursues sales of all artwork and each accepted piece must be available for sale . All artwork has a QR code that allows it to be purchased but we ask that you leave them for the duration of the show. Special circumstances are accommodated.
You may enter using the link below for the Entry form. The prospectus and payment links are also on this page.
Opening Reception is Sunday, October 4 from 2:00 to 4:00.
