21st Regional Survey of Art Exhibition in Dixon
Wed, Jan 28 – Sat, Jan 31, 2026 • 10:00am - 4:00pm View More Dates
113 W. First St., Dixon, IL 61021
A cornerstone of the TNPS calendar, this annual survey celebrates the depth of creativity found throughout the Rock River Valley.
Exhibition runs Jan. 7 through Feb. 14, 2026
Each year, the exhibition highlights the work of regional artists across a wide range of 2D and 3D media, offering a snapshot of what’s happening right now in the local art community. Past surveys have showcased more than 90 juried works, reflecting both emerging voices and seasoned talent.
This is the one TNPS exhibition with no predetermined theme. Artists are encouraged to bring in the work they’re most passionate about—finished pieces, new directions, experimental ideas—and together, they shape the narrative of the show. For visitors, that means an engaging, unpredictable mix of styles and stories, all rooted in the creative pulse of northwest Illinois
Opening Reception: January 16, from 6 to 8 p.m.
