HOWARD COUNTY, MD — Artists are encouraged to enter their work in HoCo Open, an annual non-juried exhibit hosted by the Howard County Arts Council.

Individuals age 18 or older who live, work or study in Howard County are eligible. They can submit one piece of original art that's been completed in the past two years but hasn't been shown previously in HoCo Arts galleries.

Entries are accepted online starting Nov. 5 on a first-come basis, one entry per artist, until 100 submissions total have been received. No reproductions will be allowed.

Accepted artwork will be on display at the Howard County Arts Council in its new home in the former circuit courthouse in Ellicott City from December through January.
