You should apply if you’re a North American transparent watercolor painter 18 or older willing to join TWSA.
About
The Transparent Watercolor Society of America’s 51st annual national exhibition hangs at the Kenosha Public Museum from May 1 to August 1, 2027. Members enter one or two images of paintings in transparent watercolor; accepted work is shipped to the museum in April and screened for opacity on arrival. Frank Spino and Pam Wenger jury the show and teach workshops during the run, and awards are presented at a June dinner. The museum takes a 35% commission on sales. The society’s prospectus sets out the full medium rules.
Eligibility
Residents of North America aged 18 or older whose 2027 TWSA dues are paid. Work must be transparent watercolor on a single sheet of paper, painted after January 1, 2025 without supervised instruction, and never shown in a TWSA exhibition; no opaque white, gouache, acrylic, inks or pastel.
