Concorso riservato ai soci 2026

The Portrait Society of America (PSA) hosts its annual Members Only Competition, open exclusively to PSA members in good standing. Artists may submit one original artwork per category across five categories: Commissioned Portrait, Non‑Commissioned Portrait, Outside the Box, Animals as the Subject, and Nude Figure. Submissions must be original, created independently within the last three years, and must not have previously won any art competition. All media are accepted except electronic/computer‑generated or altered works and pieces created under supervision in a class or workshop. The competition runs from September 1, 2026, with an entry deadline of November 4, 2026. An entry fee of $40 per category applies. First‑place winners in each category receive either complimentary tuition to the PSA annual conference (or virtual attendance) or a museum‑quality reproduction of a John Singer Sargent palette, plus recognition in the International Artist magazine, PSA’s website, and social media. All winners are also featured in print and online publications.
