CALLS FOR ART:
A Celebration of Art & History – Ximenez-Fatio House Holiday Mantel Displays
November 21, 2026 – January 9, 2027
Much of St. Augustine’s charm rests in the many cultures that have called this town home. This year’s Art & History Nights of Lights Mantel Exhibition celebrates the rich heritage and family traditions of its citizens, allowing viewers to reflect on the rituals, stories, and cultural influences that shape our shared experiences.
ALL submissions will be juried and 14 artists or artist teams (up to 3 collaborators) will be selected to install their designs.
October is National Sensory Processing Awareness Month, and the STAAA is once again hosting this exhibit with the Florida DeathBlind Association and the FSDB. Unlike most art exhibits, viewers-blind, visually impaired, or sighted– are invited to touch the artwork!
Works may be any subject, style or medium. Must be touchable – flat images are not recommended. Judged for acceptance and awards.
Max Size 60n. wide by 60in. high, including the frame.
Programs & Exhibits of the St. Augustine Art Association are funded in part by grants from the the St. Johns County Tourist Development Council, the St. Johns County Cultural Council, and the Community Foundation of Northeast Florida.
