Call for Artists: Native Plants and Pollinators

August 1 - 31st, 2026

Open Submissions through July 12th
Opening Reception August 1st at 6pm

Join us for our 2nd Native Plant Juried show! Apothecary Artists and Gallery invites artists working in all mediums—photography, mixed media, painting, sculpture, and more—to submit original works inspired by the beauty and vitality of native plants and native pollinators.

Whether it’s the delicate petals of a flower, the intricate patterns of leaves, or the stories our local pollinators tell, we want to showcase your unique artistic vision. This exhibition aims to highlight the importance of native plants in our community and continue our collective education.

Who Should Apply?
Artists of all experience levels and disciplines.
