Artists are invited to submit up to 3 works that engage the exhibition theme, juried by Paige Young, Assistant Professor of Photography at Kendall College of Art and Design and Photographer, the exhibition will run from Friday, September 18 to Saturday October 31, 2026, in the Gilbert Gallery at Crooked Tree Arts Center in Petoskey, Michigan.

    Environments, places, and landscapes shape our memories and experiences. Echoes explores how memories lose their clarity and change as we revisit them. The exhibition invites artists to reflect on these varied reminiscences of environments that stay with us and reverberate in our minds over time.

    We welcome original 2-D and 3-D works of art that engage the theme both literally and metaphorically across a wide range of media and artistic approaches created within the past 3 years. The entry fee is $30.00. Three cash prizes will be awarded: First Place $500, Second Place $300, and Third Place $200.
