The 45th annual exhibit showcases the talents of Pennsylvania artists and includes works by 115 artists from 30 Pennsylvania counties. Astonishingly, there were 1,836 entries received from 680 artists which means only 6% of the work was selected!

The show opens to the public on June 17, 2012 and runs through September 9, 2012.

The State Museum of Pennsylvania is located adjacent to the State Capitol in Harrisburg and offers not only this wonderful exhibition but expansive permanent collections of our state's heritage.
