Exhibits

One of the main purposes of The Peoria Art Guild is to provide a forum for contemporary art, serving as a resource for artists, educators and the community at large.

As one of the largest exhibition spaces in Central Illinois devoted to contemporary art, we present a wide variety of exhibits, with regional and national appeal, from original artwork created in traditional media to the newest, most innovative concepts currently being studied in graduate art school programs, even interactive art using computers or video technology.

Throughout the year, The Peoria Art Guild presents new exhibitions every six to eight weeks. For a list of current exhibits, please click on the Calendar link on the left side of this page.
