The American Artists Professional League presents its third-annual Realism Show, opening March 1 at the historic Howland
Cultural Center. A vibrant celebration of traditional realism, this year's show promises to be a captivating showcase of small works by the finest representational artists from across the nation.

The exhibition will feature nearly 100 juried entries displayed in the Howland Cultural Center's stunning Northcutt Hall Gallery, with each work measuring no larger than 20 inches by 20 inches. Artists from every corner of the United States will display their mastery of realism across multiple genres, including landscape, still life, portrait, figurative and floral, and in a variety of media, from oil painting to watercolor, pastels, and more.

The exhibition will run from March 1 through April 13, with an opening reception on March 1 from 1–3 p.m. This is a wonderful opportunity to meet the artists, mingle with fellow art lovers, and be among the first to view the stunning works on display. Stay tuned for details on a demo event with signature artist Brian McClear on March 22.

As with all AAPL exhibitions, the works on display will be available for sale. Whether you're a seasoned collector or a first-time art buyer, this is your chance to own a piece of exceptional American realism. Each painting, drawing, and sculpture tells a story and embodies the artist’s dedication to craftsmanship and beauty.
