HWD Juried Sculpture Exhibition

September 29 – November 8, 2025

Rosewood Arts Center announces a call to artists in Ohio and surrounding states to participate in the 19th annual HWD Juried Sculpture Exhibition with the Kettering Health Art Gallery at Rosewood Arts Center. HWD (Height x Width x Depth) is the area’s only gallery exhibition devoted exclusively to sculpture. This is a regional call. Entries must be original works in sculpture (3-D), completed within the last four years.

Jury is done from digital files through Call for Entry. A non-refundable entry fee of $25 for up to three artworks must accompany each entry. Multiple entries are permitted. Accepted artworks must be ready to hang/install upon arrival at Rosewood, and must be labeled with artist’s name and artwork title on the piece or its packaging.

Awards totaling $1,100 will be distributed at the discretion of the juror. The Gallery encourages sales, for which the City of Kettering Parks, Recreation and Cultural Arts Department retains a 30% commission.
