Annual Faber Birren Color Show
Nov 15 - Dec. 18, 2026
Reception: Sun. Nov 15, 5:30-7 PM
Since 1980, the Faber Birren Color Award has honored artists whose work demonstrates original and creative expression of color. Endowed by Faber Birren—world-renowned color consultant and author of 27 books on color—the $1,000 award launched a juried exhibition that has grown from a regional showcase into a nationally recognized event. Open to artists working in any medium, the Faber Birren Color Award Show is the only exhibition devoted exclusively to the use of color, celebrating bold palettes, nuanced chromatic study, and inventive approaches to color as a primary creative force. Join us in celebrating the visual power of color and the artists who push its boundaries.
