Appreciation for the Arts

As an arts organization, we appreciate the incredible contribution that creative people make to our community, and we look for any opportunity to support existing artists and encourage new ones.

Annually, Chamber Music Amici solicits art work from Lane County artists in a contest where winners help us promote our concerts. Their work graces the covers of our program books, highlights our concerts on our website, appears in social media posts, and more! 

In return, artists of Lane County win cash prizes through both the regular and People’s Choice Awards categories. During the 2019-2020 season, a new under-18 category was added. We enjoy sharing with the community the reveal of the finalists at our popular and well-attended annual reception at the Emerald Art Center in Springfield.

Explore the gallery below of past winners, and see  guidelines below from our most previous contest.
