The Mendocino Art Center shines its Main Gallery spotlight on the all-media artwork of its contributing members in the "Members' Juried Exhibit."

Each year, the Mendocino Art Center presents two members' exhibits featuring the finest works created by the Art Center's contributing members. A highly competitive juried selection process leads to an exceptionally creative, high quality, and much anticipated gallery showing with a wide spectrum of artwork, including paintings, ceramics, sculpture, collage, wearable art, photography and more. Well-known local artists Hilary Eddy, Lynne Prentice and Robert Rhoades juried the exhibit.
