AIS Small 2026 Catalog

Congratulations to the 154 AIS member artists who were juried into our 10 Annual Impressions: Small Works Showcase . th AIS received 1,767 entries.

J. Petter Galleries Douglas, Michigan May 1 - May 30, 2026

The exhibition also features the artwork of AIS Masters, Officers and Board Members.

Submitted work is reviewed by a panel of highly qualified, nationally recognized master and/or signature level artists , using a “blind jury” process where the juror does not know the identity of the artists. The jurors do not know the identity of the other jurors. Each juror assigns a score from one (low) to ten (high) to each painting entered, based on technical mastery (composition, design, value, drawing, edges, etc) and impressionistic in style. Points are tabulated revealing the highest scoring paintings. The American Impressionist Society believes this method of selection is the most fair and unbiased jurying method currently available. The accepted works are then reviewed and selected for awards by our exhibition Awards Judge.
