A juried art competition is a great way to grow your exhibition history with quality venues. And it is a way for a gallery or organization to gain exposure to a broad range of new artists and to mount an exhibition or publication of the highest quality from the works submitted.
While it is true that the majority of artists who enter the juried exhibition will not be chosen as winners, this is no reason for artists to feel cheated if they are among those not chosen. The entry fee is not just a fee, but in fact a donation which contributes to the continuing existence of the organization. It supports activities that will benefit countless artists who otherwise may never have the opportunity to show their works to the public.
