"A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood" | Due 4/01/26 | Artwork Due: 5/28/26 | On View:  June 2026
Dandelions pushing up through cracks in the sidewalk, Amazon parrots flying above telephone wires: nature exists everywhere, even within the city. This show celebrates the connections you make with nature within Santa Ana.

"Under the Magnifying Glass" | Due 8/1/26 | Artwork Due: 9/24/26 | On View:  October 2026
What miniature marvels do you miss on a daily basis? Take some time to slow down and look more closely. Artwork should focus on natural subjects small enough to fit within the palm of your hand.

"Wonders of Water" | Due 12/1/26 | Artwork Due: 1/27/27 | On View: February 2027
Creeks, lakes, rain, puddles: in all of its forms, water is life. Artwork should celebrate the water itself, or the things within and beside it.
