Artists, members, and the public are invited to a free review of the 37th Juried Annual Exhibit at the Miller Art Museum on Oct. 11 at 10:30 am. The museum opens at 10 am for coffee, cookies and to view the exhibit. Craig Blietz, an award-winning artist and teacher, will be the featured speaker.

Blietz has a long list of awards and is included in many prestigious collections. With a B.S. from University of Denver, he graduated from the School of Representational Art and studied at the Harrington College of Design. Independent studies in Italy, France, Great Britain, New York City, and Washington D.C. have also enriched his career.

Each year the jury is comprised of a different pool of art professionals who conscientiously select work for inclusion. 2012 jurors included Berel Lutzky, Mary Ulm Mayhew, and Karsten Topelmann. They chose 49 pieces by 37 artists from 162 entries.

This exhibit shows a variety of subject matter and media, from gentle realism to expressive photography, printmaking, encaustic, oil and acrylic paintings.

The Juried Annual Exhibit continues through Nov. 5.
