All twelve finalists are set to be featured in a 2026 art calendar available at the end of November at Spiva Center for the Arts.
Spiva’s tagline comes to life through the theme, “Celebrating the Creative Experience,” where participants designed a card that bursts with joy, imagination, and color. The twelve finalists have been selected by a Spiva+Arvest panel – they reflect the vibrancy of the arts, the power of creativity, and the spirit of community that Spiva fosters. While choosing your favorites, think bold, celebratory, and uplifting—art that sparks inspiration every time the card is used.
