Art About Agriculture Touring Exhibition 2026: Field Report presents fine art and craft that explores visual storytelling inspired by agricultural experiences and observation. Personal story, history, heritage, mythology, poetry, research, and data support one of our most thematically rich and materially diverse exhibitions to date. This juried touring exhibition features the work of 52 artists representing 35 counties throughout Oregon,

Washington, Idaho, and Montana.

Inspired by the processes of growing food or producing fiber, the art within the exhibition was all made in appreciation of the work it takes to create the resources our lives depend on. The original Art About Agriculture exhibit was made in 1983 and was the first touring exhibit with an agricultural theme. The works in this exhibition were selected from over five hundred submissions, and reviewed by a panel of jurors with connections to the arts or agriculture from each of the host towns.
