Home Fires: Tulsa Artists’ Coalition | 36th Annual Members’ Show

Submissions Open: Monday, September 8 

Deadline: Friday, November 7, 2025

Exhibition Dates: January 2 – 24, 2026

With a wide array of styles and perspectives, “Home Fires” is a celebration of Tulsa’s art community and the shared bonds that make TAC a place to come home to.

TAC members are invited to submit up to two original pieces created in the last two years for consideration. Due to the limited space in our gallery, only one piece per artist will be selected and works must be no larger than 24 inches on the longest side.The show will be juried from digital online submissions ONLY. We recommend submitting your artwork in jpg format, 1200px on the longest side (portrait or landscape) at 72 dpi.

Please use an individual form for each of the two submissions.

This show is open to all media.

Accepted work must be ready for display / hanging, with any necessary wires, D rings, and framing in place. Wrapped or cradled canvases / panels are acceptable and do not require framing. Works not ready for exhibition will not be displayed.

TAC places no restriction on subject matter with the exception of hate speech. Any artwork interpreted to be discriminatory, derogatory or otherwise pejorative to a particular race, gender or religion may be rejected at the discretion of TAC. 

Jurors’ awards will be announced at the opening reception on January 2, 2026. New and renewing memberships will be accepted up to and including on the submission deadline.
