A group of artists have committed to reviving the All Oregon Art Annual in 2013. We want to bring it back to what it once was — a showcase for art made in Oregon by Oregonians. We have worked hard to plan for this year’s state fair: rewritten the competition handbook, recruited competent jurors, finishing up space planning for our exhibit space in the Americraft Center at the Jackman-Long Building.
