Are you a visual artist? Want to collaborate with us? We're accepting applications from now until January 5 for our 2024 Featured Artist.

The featured artist will be compensated and a contract will be negotiated individually. If you are a visual artist interested in contributing an original work, please send your CV and links to your website and social media to alex@northern.org by January 5.

Each year, the Northern Alaska Environmental Center chooses an artist whose work embodies the spirit of Northern Alaska, and features their work on publicity materials throughout the year, with the original piece auctioned off in November.

Happy December! It's officially time to start thinking about the end of the year - and preparing for the new one. Now through January 5, we are accepting applications for our 2024 featured artist.
