The deadline is quickly approaching for artists hoping to take part in this year’s Under $100 Art Show in Winnipeg, with applications due May 1, 2026. Organized by ARTSPOT, this annual event has become a much-anticipated opportunity for artists and audiences alike, offering a welcoming space where original artwork is both accessible and affordable. This year, the event is coming to Winnipeg for the first time.
Set to return to Winnipeg this August, the Under $100 Art Show features a wide range of creative work, including paintings, photography, jewellery, ceramics, mixed media, and more. The focus is simple but powerful: connect local artists with the community in a way that makes collecting original art approachable for everyone.
For artists, the show provides an important platform to exhibit and sell work to a broad audience. For visitors, it offers a relaxed and engaging way to explore contemporary art without the barriers often associated with gallery spaces or higher price points. A timed ticket system helps create an open, low-pressure viewing experience, and allows artists to showcase both smaller works and larger pieces throughout the day.
Artist applications for Winnipeg and Saskatoon opened April 1, 2026, and interest is expected to be strong as the May 1 deadline approaches. Organizers are encouraging artists from across disciplines and experience levels to apply and be part of this growing creative event.
