Miami University Young Painters Competition 2027 (Yeck Award)
Hiestand Galleries, Miami University
The Yeck competition is one of the better-funded prizes aimed squarely at painters in the first decade of a career: a $10,000 purchase award, which means the winning painting enters Miami University's collection, plus $2,500 and $2,000 for second and third place. Selected works are shown at the Hiestand Galleries in Oxford, Ohio in February–March 2027, juried this cycle by Dan Cameron.
