About The Delta Exhibition:
One the longest running, juried contemporary art exhibitions outside New York City, the Delta is open to all artists living in or born in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee or Texas. Founded in 1956, the Delta was created to showcase contemporary works by artists of the Mississippi Delta region. Today, the Annual Delta Exhibition has grown to encompass works in all media and reflects the region’s strong traditions of craftsmanship and observation, combined with innovative use of materials and an experimental approach to subject matter.
