Art of the State 2025
As you roam through the gallery, each sculpture captures the distinct vision of its artist. A story unfolds with every sculpture–a narrative derived from the interplay of material, methods, and meaning. Together, this forest of sculptures showcases the richness and diversity of how these Colorado artists can activate four square feet.
Every three years, all 10,000 square feet of the Arvada Center Galleries are filled with a celebratory survey of Colorado Artists' incredible diversity, quality, and depth of work. After its start in 2013 and iterations every three years, Art of the State 2025 continues its legacy as a juried exhibition showing off the powerful scope of contemporary art across the state. This open call open to all Colorado artists garnered 2503 submissions by 911 artists. The jurors worked diligently to select a comprehensive overview of work that strives to capture a wide scope of art from across the state. From those entries, 148 artworks by 145 artists were selected.
