15th Annual Square Foot Show
The Bismarck Art and Galleries Association is proud to present the annual Square Foot Show, one of the gallery’s most anticipated and visually striking exhibitions of the year.
This unique show brings together artists of all experience levels and backgrounds, each creating original work on a 12” x 12” canvas. The uniform size creates a powerful visual impact when displayed collectively, highlighting the incredible diversity of styles, subjects, and mediums represented.
This year’s exhibition features a strong regional and national presence, with participating artists from Arizona, California, Colorado, Minnesota, North Dakota, Tennessee, Virginia, Washington, and Wisconsin. The wide geographic range brings fresh perspectives and artistic voices to the gallery, making this year’s show especially dynamic.
With over 70 artists involved, visitors can expect an engaging and immersive experience—one where every piece offers something new to discover. From bold abstract compositions to detailed landscapes and expressive portraits, the variety ensures there is something for every taste.
Adding to the excitement, every artwork in the exhibition is priced equally at $165, creating an accessible and approachable opportunity for both new and seasoned collectors. With all pieces available on a first-come, first-served basis, early attendance is encouraged.
The Square Foot Show celebrates creativity, community, and the joy of collecting original art. Whether you are a dedicated supporter of the arts or simply looking for a piece that speaks to you, this exhibition is not to be missed.
