Inaugural President’s Art Prize at Colorado State University 



The President's Art Prize is an inaugural juried art competition at Colorado State University, established through a partnership between the CSU President's Office and the Department of Art & Art History to celebrate and elevate the creative work of CSU students and alumni. The prize offers a $500 grand prize, $250 Awards of Distinction, and $150 Honorable Mentions, with the work professionally installed and displayed for a full academic year at the residence of CSU President Amy Parsons. Open to both art and non-art majors, the prize champions diverse artistic voices across campus and serves as a launchpad for emerging artists through recognition, mentorship, and promotion. Winners are selected by a distinguished juried panel and honored at a special celebration at the President's House each spring. 

Curated and organized by Maximus Vogt, Anna Coons, and Xinran Yuan
