November 30th is Artist Sunday when we encourage everyone of you to buy at least
one work of art this year. If you have not already done so or want to buy more,
then start the search for your new work art as soon as you can. It can be a
gift for yourself or a valued friend or relation. Go to art exhibitions, visit
artists sites. (We list more than 1500 local artist on our site alone!)
But
there are other ways to support Artists in San Diego besides buying a work of
theirs. In our 19th year the 2026 San Diego Art
Prize recipients are Danielle Dean, Ingrid Hernandez, Tatiana Ortiz Rubio who will be showing
their work at the Oceanside Museum of Art starting
in Sept 2026.We hope you will consider
supporting this worthy legacy project.
How does the prize help the over 70 artists that have received
it to date? It gives them all:
Exposure to international
professionals
Financial support for their
creative work
Improved public education
about their art
Name recognition and promotion
How does your donation achieve this? The funds go toward:
Free catalog, both hard copy
and online
Lesson plans for students
visiting the exhibition and available online
Honorariums for writers and
selectors
Fees for curator and
administrator
