LGAA has several competitions and exhibitions every year. Two of them are Juried and well-suited to professional and intermediate-level artists. The other three are for artists of all levels. Beginners and emerging artists who haven't ever had their art in an exhibit can benefit by taking advantage of these opportunities.
This non-juried exhibition is held when invited to exhibit in the Los Gatos Town Council Chambers, located in the downtown Civic Center. There are no fees or commissions. It is ideal for artists who have never been in an exhibition. There is limited space and is on a first come - first serve basis.
Held Annually, this juried competition has traditionally been held at the Los Gatos AP-JCC on Oka Road, Los Gatos, CA
This summer show is open to local artists of all levels. Each year the show is based on a different theme. It is held at the park-like residence of LGAA members Hershel Abelman and Ingeborg Jakobson. There are no entry fees and no commissions.
This biennial juried competition and exhibition is open to all bay area artists including non-members who reside in the surrounding counties from Napa to Carmel. It is a joint venture with LGAA and New Museum Los Gatos (NUMU) and is held in its art museum gallery in the downtown Civic Center. Cash prizes up to $6,000 are awarded.
This competition and exhibition is open to all members. See Artist of Year page for details.
