2009 Sun Bowl Best of Show
"Matthew" by Nancy Begin
Each year, the International Museum of Art sponsors the Sun Bowl Art Exhibit, a juried competition featuring the top artists from all over the country. The exhibit is held in conjunction with the Sun Bowl festivities, and typically runs from November to December. Check our calendar for exact dates.
Since the International Museum of Art is along the Sun Bowl Parade route and houses the Sun Bowl sponsor parade viewing party, this exhibit provides an opportunity for all involved in the Sun Bowl festivities to see this yearly show.
Free General Admission
While the Sun Bowl Art Exhibit is on display, the public is welcome to come and view the works at this, the Southwest’s largest juried art exhibit. All items on display in the exhibit are available for purchase and selected items are also available in our online store.
General Admission to the International Museum of Art is Always Free
If you’ve missed this year’s exhibit, we hope you’ll visit the Museum’s special and permanent collections as well as our other changing exhibits (check our calendar). More information for visitors can be found on our home page.
