Calling all artists!
Get your artwork in front of adoring eyes by hosting your own art exhibit and reception at The Grand.
We are actively seeking artists to exhibit their work for the coming year in both galleries. Along with the opportunity to show your work for a month, artists will take part in the City of Wilmington’s Art On the Town, also known as “Art Loop,” on first Fridays. All shows will be listed in Out & About Magazine, distributed to local businesses and galleries, and on the Art Loop and The Grand’s websites.
Not only will you be getting exposure and potential sales for your work, but you will be giving enrichment and enjoyment to patrons, performing artists, staff, and other visitors.

Tranquility and Turbulence
(January 7, 2025 - January 27, 2025)
The Jazz Man by Gregory Nichols
Gregory Nichols “Tranquility and Turbulence”
My paintings draw from observing my surroundings and often from music. My early years could be summed up by Arlo Guthrie’s “Alices Restaurant,” as I kind of lived it. Moving to today I’d like to finish with Kenny G or Frank Sinatra’s “September of My Years” (“When I was 17…”)
I’m hoping you all see something that gives you pleasure, or something that brings back a long-lost memory to pique your interest.
The train rolls on! I once saw a statement that read, "Life is the big game. You can ride it out in the bleachers or get down on the field and Go For It.” Time rolls!
Pacem In Terris Traveling Peace Youth Art Exhibition
(January 7, 2025 - January 27, 2025)
Pacem In Terris Traveling Peace Youth Art Exhibition
Pacem In Terris Traveling Peace Youth Art Exhibition
What is your vision of a peaceful world? What does peace mean to you?
Over 650 students from more than 30 Delaware schools and community organizations answered these questions by submitting inspiring artwork and descriptions for the Pacem in Terris 8th Annual Visionary Peace Youth Art Exhibition. Local leaders selected the strongest messages of peace to travel throughout Delaware as part of the Traveling Peace Youth Art Exhibition.
This juried exhibition showcases a diverse collection of beautiful, original, inspiring visions and messages of peace. The young artists, between 5-18 years old, submitted their artwork from public, private, and charter schools or community organizations. Nine additional collections of Traveling Peace youth artwork are concurrently exhibited at galleries and locations across the state. For details, see the Pacem in Terris website at depaceminterris.org.
We are grateful to the young artists and their art teachers, along with the volunteers, generous sponsors, and donors for their support. This exhibition is supported, in part, by grants from the Laffey-McHugh Foundation and The Delaware Division of the Arts. The Delaware Division of the Arts is a state agency, in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts. The Division promotes Delaware Art events on DelawareScene.com.
