2026 Annual Member's Show

This special exhibit highlights the diverse work of our members and offers our local artists a chance to share their art with the community. The Annual Member's Show is a celebration of the incredible talent within our artistic community; we are so excited to hold this exhibit during our town's historic Magnolia Days Festival, giving everyone a chance to celebrate our artists together.

2025 Member's Art Show 


Every year, the Live Oak Art Center hosts an annual Member's Show in which any current member may submit up to three pieces of their artworks. Our 2025 Members Show is now over but we loved having this astounding 78 piece exhibit showcasing 26 of our amazing members. Thank you so much to those who participated and supported us; see you again next year!!

Permanent Collection


The Previous Exhibit displayed in the Emma Hay Galley, before the 2025 Annual Member's Show, was a group of works pulled from our Permanent Collection. These are paintings that we have purchased or otherwise acquired throughout the Live Oak Art Center's time in the Brunson Building. Most often, an exhibit created from our Permanent Collection is composed of paintings depicting Columbus--this show was no exception.
