Annual rotating exhibition; 2026 applications closed.
Program context & project planning
Moab ArtTrails describes a one-year exhibition, a $1,000 artist honorarium and two nights of lodging. Sales carry a 25-percent commission, and the program may acquire a Keeper for up to $12,000. These are published exhibition terms, not confirmation that a work remains available for selection.

Would the honorarium and possible sale justify the round-trip placement costs?
The artist guidance calls for completed or in-progress work documented by images, rather than an unmade proposal. It specifies minimum height and steel-base requirements and asks for work suited to high-desert exposure and public safety. Mounting compatibility should be checked before transport is priced.

Can the existing base meet the host's anchoring specification?
The program identifies Steve Grater's Matriarch as its 2024 Keeper, placed permanently near Main Street and 100 South. This is a documented route from a temporary display into a local collection. It does not establish that every exhibited sculpture will be purchased.
