Umpqua Valley Arts is proud to present the return of our biannual regional exhibit titled the Artworks Northwest Biennial.

Since 2010, the Artworks Northwest Biennial has become an exhibition to showcase and celebrate the works of contemporary artists from the Northwest region. This call to art welcomes artists from Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, Northern California, Idaho, Western Montana, and Western Wyoming to submit work to be considered for exhibition in this regional showcase. Works for the biennial are selected by a curator residing/working in the Pacific Northwest whom UVA asks to lend their eye and voice to the exhibit. This year, UVA is honored to have Charlene Liu as our guest curator.
