To Inquiring ArtistsExposure in the Midwest The Annual International Small Works Show, hosted by Emerald Gallery, has proven to be successful on all levels and each year's exhibit sees stronger public appreciation, drawing a sophisticated audience. Fairfield Iowa, town of 10,000, is
an arts community in the southeast quadrant of Iowa. Because of its unique international focus, Fairfield is home to more that 300 visual artists, and draws attention from the international artist community. It is a happening place with sophisticated
taste. This exhibit is the Midwest's largest annual exhibit of original work by a representation of international artists. That says something. Artwork Selection Exhibiting in the Small Works Show is by invitation. The range of work included each year represents both emerging and recognized artists and a price range accordingly. The exhibit includes a representation of original works in all mediums and styles. A seven person committee considers participation inquiries from approximately 600 artists. A final invitation list is created. This year 140 artists from around the country will present work. Each year, gallery visitors repeatedly say they love this unique, fresh, and unpretentious exhibit. Artwork specifications All work is original. All work must be framed.

Corporate Awards Program The Corporate Awards program was created by Emerald Gallery three years ago! All art patrons are invited to participate.

These privileged viewers get first viewing and first choices and they line up at the door counting the minutes to entry!
