Artists are invited to submit their works for consideration in the jurying phase of Gallery Main Street’s Featured Artist Exhibit. This exhibit is unique, as it exclusively showcases the work of a single artist once a year for two months. All art mediums are welcome for submission.

The deadline for entry is Friday, Dec. 13 by midnight. The selected artist will be announced on Friday, Dec. 20.

The entry process is digital, and artists can submit up to four pieces. The entry fee is $50. Artists interested in participating can visit the Downtown Tyler Arts website to find all the information needed to submit.

The Featured Artist selected will be recognized at an opening reception on November 7, 2025, which will be free and open to the public. The exhibit will run through Jan. 9, 2026. The artist’s work will be displayed on Gallery Main Street's social media platforms and the website at Current Exhibit — Downtown Tyler. 

Gallery Main Street is a project of the City of Tyler Main Street Department, in cooperation with the Downtown Tyler Arts Coalition volunteers.
