Got a passion for nature and creative flair? Myriad Botanical Gardens welcomes you to be a part of our pollinator exhibit.

We are looking to commission new works of art that showcase the vital role of Oklahoma’s pollinators and the flowers they visit. Your art will be displayed in our Crystal Bridge Lobby Art Gallery (May 31 – August 8) and be featured on banners throughout the garden.

What we’re looking to commission:
Two pieces of artwork depicting (1) Oklahoma pollinators and (2) the flowers they pollinate (a list will be provided to the selected finalists)

Any 2D size & style, scalable to a 24x36in banner size

Finalists will receive:

• A chance to design specific pieces from our list of pollinators and flowers 
• $500 compensation 
• Spotlight in our garden and gallery 

Submissions must be gallery-ready by May 30—framed or on a wrapped canvas.

Simply fill out the short form below with samples of your work. (We are only looking for artwork that is representative of your style. You are not expected to complete a new piece for submission.) Links to social media accounts are acceptable. 

Questions? Reach out to Emmy French at efrench@myriadgardens.org.

We look forward to seeing interpretations of Oklahoma’s ecosystem – your art can help educate and inspire others about the importance of these incredible species.
