St. Johns County, FL – Photographers and artists who work in both 2D and 3D categories are invited to submit entries for First Coast Cultural Center’s annual Juried Art Member (JAM) exhibition through December 30. Participants will have an original art piece evaluated and then exhibited at JAM, which kicks off with an opening reception on Friday, January 16, from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m.
“JAM was created to showcase the talents of FCCC Artist Members, and the great diversity of creations always makes this an anticipated event,” according to Kimberly Sheridan, FCCC’s Fundraising and Events Manager. She adds that winners in each category will receive a monetary prize and have the opportunity to display more pieces in a future exhibition called ‘Best Of’ in the fall of 2026.
Entries are submitted through email, and the first entry is free of charge, with the second entry being $25 and the third $35. Email the information for each piece along with a photo to ksheridan@firstcoastculturalcenter.org by December 30. Payment can be made on FCCC’s website where the agreement form can also be downloaded: JAM 2026 Artist Submission Information. All art will be brought in for judging on January 5 and 6.
Interested non-members are welcome to purchase FCCC memberships at https://firstcoastculturalcenter.org/ on the membership page and enter by the deadline.
