A Juried Exhibition featuring 120 works by artists around the San Francisco Bay Area.
This exhibition highlights the depth and range of contemporary practice in our local arts community, bringing together emerging and established artists working across painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, and mixed media. The selection emphasizes strong visual language, intentional process, and a commitment to exploration.
At West Portal Gallery, our vision is to support serious artistic practice while fostering dialogue between artists and audiences. This juried exhibition reflects that commitment – offering a platform for Bay Area artists to present ambitious work and inviting viewers to engage closely with the ideas, materials, and decisions behind each piece.
