TO SEE WHAT TO EXPECT, HERE IS THE PRESS ON LAST YEAR’S WINNERS:

This year’s competition is giving away 100 free submissions,

two each day until the July 31 deadline. Submissions are usually $25 each. To win a free submission, send an email to amerartawards@aol.com and in the subject line only type a number from 1 to 1,000. Do not write anything else in the subject line and do not put anything in the email. If you are one of the two guesses closest to the pre-selected number that day, American Art Awards will email you back the next day saying you won a free submission and inform you how to submit.

Only 1 email guess a day per artist.

Only 1 free submission allowed per artist: American Art Awards wants 100 different artists to be included this year.

AAA has already printed their daily number selections, and after all 50 days and after all 100 free submissions are given, AAA will share that dated document.

You can still enter anytime for only $25 here:

SEE THE 25 BEST GALLERIES & MUSEUMS IN AMERICA WHO WILL VOTE ON THIS YEAR’S JPEGS:

Last year American Art Awards Galleries & Museums scored online images from 62 countries: Afghanistan, Armenia, Australia, Bangladesh, Belarus, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, China, Croatia, England, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Haiti, Hong Kong, India, Iraq, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Malaysia, Mexico, Moldova, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nigeria, Oman, Pakistan, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Qatar, Republic Of Korea, Romania, Russia, South Korea, Serbia, Singapore, Spain, South Africa, South Korea, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, Uganda, UK, Ukraine, USA, Venezuela, Zimbabwe.

There is a $25 FEE PER SUBMISSION for your image sent to all 25 galleries / museums. (That breaks down to like only $1 to have your work introduced to each of these 25 successful and esteemed art institutions. )

American Art Awards also sends your contact info and web site to these galleries — so if your image is extraordinary, a gallery MAY contact you and discuss representation. It happens — but American Art Awards does not guarantee that, and of course no artist has to accept gallery representation. It’s just a fantastic perk that happens once in a while!

The $25 fee goes to the cash prizes

— and administrative costs:

* Emailing you back with verification of your submission information.
* Sending the art image and contact info to all voting galleries and museums.
* Emailing the results to all 300+ winning artists.

  • Issuing an international press release to about 600 publications naming the 5 cash winners, and later creating and distributing 100 articles to over 100,000 galleries, collectors, artists, and/or viewers of online art pages.
  • Posting these articles to hundreds of Facebook art groups accessible to millions of members.
  • Posting winning art images and artists’ contact info on our site to ideally attract collectors to your art.
  • Producing a MOVIE on YouTube, starring all winning art like the below.
