2nd Annual Ellen Sussman-Eva Briggs
Memorial Abstract Art Competition

Monday, February 2, 2026 – Monday, March 2, 2026

at the Community Performance and Art Center (CPAC)

We are honoring Eva Brigg’s request to paint in the “Square” and Ellen Sussman’s many years of love and support of abstract art in Green Valley. We are bringing this abstract competition to the attention of all SRAL members, especially new members, who have toyed with the idea of trying something challenging and different.

Submissions can be in any medium: Acrylic, Watercolor, Oils, Pastel, Collage, and Mixed Media. All substrates (canvas, wood panel, paper or cradle board) must measure 12″ x 12″, 20″ x 20″, 24″ x 24″, 30″ x 30″, 36″ x 36″, or 48″ x 48″. The maximum dimensions of a framed piece shall not exceed more than 2″ above the substrate’s size. For example, for a 12″ x 12″ substrate, the frame should not exceed 14″ x 14″. Each artist may enter two pieces.
