Meet the Juror

Stefano Catalani is the Museum of Northwest Art's Executive Director. He began his tenure at MoNA in 2022 after leading Gage Academy of Art, Seattle for 5 years, also in the role of Executive Director. Previously, Catalani was the Director of Art, Craft & Design at Bellevue Arts Museum (BAM). He conceived and launched the successful series Bellevue Arts Museum Biennials, focused on celebrating craft and design in the Pacific Northwest.

Our juried exhibition showcases emerging and established artists with works chosen by a prominent juror who has ties to the artistic community of the Pacific Northwest. Our gallery location and reputation offer artists exposure to professional reviews, access to Seattle’s Pioneer Square gallery district, and First Thursday Art Walk.

Tips (from a former juror)

In CaFÉ, there is a small text box that you can fill in with information about each specific piece.
Use it to provide a written description of what the Juror is looking at, for example ‘detail of textured surface of Still Life #3’— particularly if it may not be immediately clear from the image you are submitting.
Artist statements are most effective when short and to the point.
