ART COLLECTIVE AWARDS

NEW FOR 2023

To simply put it, there is no other art competition and exhibit out there that celebrates as many artists with such diverse talents and medium specialties as Art Comes Alive. In fact, Art Comes Alive has been such a big hit every year that this year, 2023, we will be having two ACA's, Spring Competition and Fall Competition. The Spring Competition will feature a virtual and gallery exhibition, plus an awards ceremony for the top artists. See what ACA is all about in the video below!
