Established in 1978 as The Challenge and now known as the Wind Challenge, Fleisher’s annual juried competition is committed to enriching people’s lives through art by featuring the work of exceptional artists living in the region

For this series, nine selected artists will be featured in a trio of Wind Challenge Exhibitions, each featuring three artists, to be hosted at Fleisher in 2027. The jurors for this year’s competition are SEAN STAROWITZ and ALPESH PATEL. The selected cohort of artists will work closely with the Director of Exhibitions in curating their work and exhibition-related programming.

The Wind Challenge Exhibition Series is made possible thanks to generous support from the Wind Foundation.
