Thanks to all who have submitted their work for this year's exhibit. We are excited about this year's event (the 11th Festival) in Vancouver, BC and we have reconfirmed the support of our host - VanDusen Botanical Garden. Our sincere hope is that many of those who normally travel from outside Canada will be able to attend this year, as is the case during more normal times. We're also on-track for the subsequent touring exhibit and special event at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum in Tucson, Arizon, next January. 

A reminder as well, that you have the option to submit art for the book and Virtual Exhibit only, for art that is either unavailable for the live show, or too large, expensive or fragile to ship. We're planning new features on the Virtual Exhibit this year to accommodate those who will not be able to travel due to COVID-19 concerns.

The 2020 AFC Exhibit is now open at The James Museum of Western and Wildlife Art in St. Petersburg, Florida through May 23. If you haven't already seen the video the museum produced about the exhibit, Watch it here!.
