About Us
Wyoming Art Show Committee
The annual Wyoming Art Show is one of Southwest Ohio - Greater Cincinnati’s premiere juried art shows and competitions. For 39 years the Wyoming Art Show has not only attracted the finest artists from over seven states, it has become a destination for the sophisticated art buying public in the Greater Cincinnati tri-state area.
Taking place Sunday, May 18, 2025 (11 am to 5 pm) on Worthington Ave in Wyoming, OH, this event is perfect for families! Great music, distinctive food offerings, free children’s art activities, and free admission and parking complement the well-balanced, juried fine art show.
All artists that were accepted into the 2024 show are invited to participate, except in the categories of Fiber and Jewelry which will be re-juried for 2025. There are more than 125 regional fine arts exhibitors selected to participate in the show and over $4,900 in professionally judged cash awards are typically presented to the winners.
The Wyoming Art Show has most recently provided the sculpture outside of the Wyoming library, several murals spotted along Wyoming Avenue and the Crescent Park Playground, and art supplies have been provided to Lockland City Schools and The Wyoming Recreation Center.
The show has been run by a group of longstanding community volunteers committed to the success of the show and exposure to the arts. They now have established a website platform to direct the community to the artists online shops, websites, and Etsy stores. The show is also promoted through various platforms, including Facebook advertising and social media.
“The show is about highlighting artists and exposing them to the Wyoming community and our visitors,” says Becky Miars, Lead Fundraising Volunteer. “Art makes a difference in the community and our quality of life. With the generous support of our volunteers and donors we have continued to grow and do more and more for the community all year long.”
“The Wyoming Art Show appreciates our artists and would like to thank our volunteers, sponsors, and attendees for your continued support. This event would not be possible without all of you.”
