SDWS Special Shows

The San Diego Watercolor Society regularly presents their members’ art at its gallery in Liberty Station during monthly themed Member Shows and in October for the International Exhibition. From time to time, SDWS provides other opportunities to showcase members' work in special shows. These shows are special because they may invite a special audience to or the venue may be unique and located away from the SDWS Gallery. Some special shows may be repeated each year, while others may occur just once.

Special Shows will be listed for entry on the member home page (Membership > Member Home). By their very nature, Special Shows change so check back from time to time to learn about these unique opportunities that SDWS provides its members and the San Diego Art Community.

Unlike Member Shows, most Special Show require digital images to be submited with your entry.

Special Show Entry Fees Processing

The SDWS show entry system is designed for entry into SDWS Member Shows, International Shows and Western Federation Shows, all of which require an entry fee. Special Shows typically do not require entry fees. The SDWS payment processing system, Paypal, does not process $0 payments.

When entering a Special Show, upload the painting's image file and complete all of the entry information requested. Click the "Enter" button and you will be taken to the Show Entry screen that displays your entry with a reminder that the entry is not complete until you pay the entry fee, which is $0.  No further action is needed. You have entered the special show at this point.

To verify your entry, go to your member home page (Membership > Member Home) and in the lower right part of your screen, locate the Special Show name and it should read below it: "You have entered this show. Please click here to review your entries."
