Celebrating Art in Texas for 92 Years!
What happens when 197 Texas artists submit 443 pieces of art for a juried exhibition?
The San Antonio Art League & Museum (SAALM) proudly presents 66 of those pieces
selected by Juror Leah Hardy for the 92nd Annual Juried Exhibition.
With a storied history of the Edgar B. Davis collection amassed from competitions held in the
late 1920s, SAALM has a venerable reputation of showing some of the finest artwork Texas
artists have to offer. Including this year’s annual exhibition representing artists from San
Antonio, Dallas-Ft Worth, Houston, Austin, San Marcos, Corpus Christi and places in-between.
More than $11,000 in awards were presented at the opening reception in various categories
and to honor past SAALM members. This includes the prestigious Onderdonk Purchase
Prize Award of $3,000 in honor of Julian Onderdonk, a San Antonio native who studied under
William Merritt Chase. Onderdonk’s work has been celebrated by Presidents and Museums
alike, including an exhibit at the San Antonio Art Museum in 2017.
Our thanks to the Exhibition’s corporate sponsors which include Enterprise Rent-A-Car,
Herweck’s Art Supply, Art Gallery Prudencia and La Fonda on Main.
Peter Szarmach, Exhibition Committee Chair
