Central Region Juried Art Exhibition
On display in our Main Gallery, May 3 to May 27, 2021.
Prairie Fusion Arts & Entertainment is pleased to host the 39th Annual Central Region Juried Art Exhibition. Our board members, staff and volunteers would like to extend our greetings to everyone taking part in the 2021 Exhibition and Opening celebrations.
The Central Cultural Council takes great pleasure in welcoming the 16 artists from the Central Region of Manitoba that have entered 37 works of art into the Juried Art Exhibition. We congratulate and thank all the artists who have presented us with a broad spectrum of mediums, styles and subject matter, verifying the diverse talent of our regional artists.
To continue the tradition of selecting a “People’s Choice Award”, we have created an online gallery that will be open April 28 to April 29 at noon. We ask people to email their vote to pdac@mts.net. You can only cast your vote once! Please include the Artists Full Name, the title and number of the piece and your name. The artwork with the most votes will be announced at the artist reception and that piece will become part of the Touring Exhibition. As well, the artist receiving the People’s Choice Award will have the opportunity to have a photo of their artwork used in the 2022 CRJAE promotional material.
Prairie Fusion Arts & Entertainment wishes to extend our sincere thanks to the Manitoba Arts Council, the Department of Sport, Culture and Heritage and local sponsors Aspire Dental Centre for all their financial support and assistance. Thank you to the jurors – Carmen Hathaway and Annette Henderson. We would also like to thank the Central Cultural Council members, and all the volunteers who have assisted with the numerous details to make the 39th Annual Central Region Juried Art Exhibition possible. Finally, a special thanks goes out to the artists for sharing their talent with us!
All touring pieces will be available for pick up from the respective depots on or after November 2, 2021.

The Manitoba Rural & Northern Juried Art Show is a provincial level exhibition that celebrates the artistic achievements of artists from Manitoba's rural and northern communities. The exhibit introduces Winnipeg audiences to the artistic work generated by visual artists from beyond the perimeter (Eastman, Westman, Central, Parkland, Northern and Interlake Regions). A diverse range of media (painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, ceramics and textiles) is exhibited. All selected artists are sent registration information from the MB Arts Network and can register to participate if they so choose. Should you have any questions or concerns regarding the MB Rural and Northern Juried Art Show please contact Nicole Shimonek at the MB Arts Network at 1-866-919-2787.
