The Nansemond-Suffolk Academy Art Show and Sale attracts artists and art connoisseurs throughout Hampton Roads. The show takes place the last week in January through the first week in February. Admission is free, and the community is welcome. The NSA Art Show and Sale boasts a wonderful diversity of media from over 150 artists, including paintings and multimedia works of art. Prices range from $25 to $7,000. While the works of art beautifully adorn the Lower School hallways, teachers also use the Art Show and Sale as an opportunity to incorporate the art and artists’ displays into their curriculum.
 

ARTISTS

New and established artists are invited to submit their artwork to be selected for the show. Art Show and Sale applications are mailed in the summer. Artist applicants are asked to submit three to five photographs of their work. All works are juried by the NSA Art Show and Sale Selection Committee. Artists will be notified of the jury’s decision by the end of the summer. The application process is now open for the 2021 Art Show and Sale. To be added to the NSA Art Show and Sale mailing list for 2021, please email your name and mailing address to Melissa Hlinovsky ’02, assistant director of advancement at mhlinovs@nsacademy.org.
