Originally presented in 1958 as the Delta Exhibition of Painting and Sculpture, this juried exhibition features innovative and provocative two- and three-dimensional works in all media.
Each year, more than 900 entries are received from artists who reside in or are natives of Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee or Texas. A guest juror selects works for the exhibition and a Grand Award and two Delta Awards for the top works in the show.
The Delta represents the dynamic vision of the artists of the Mississippi Delta region and offers visitors a glimpse into the contemporary art scene.
