It’s that time of year again! Every year, the Multiple Sclerosis Association of America (MSAA) hosts a digital Art Showcase, displaying the beautiful artwork and heartfelt stories of individuals with MS. Over the years, we have received many wonderful submissions from people from all over the country. We are once again hosting the Art Showcase and invite you to participate!

Beginning now until January 9, 2026, MSAA will accept visual art submissions for the 2026-2027 Art Showcase. Participants are encouraged to submit up to three pieces of artwork including but not limited to: paintings, drawings, digital artwork, and photography. Please note that all artwork must be photographed or digitally captured.

Submissions are only accepted electronically via email at showcase@mymsaa.org.

Eligibility and Specifications:

• All participants must have a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. First-time participants must provide a copy of a doctor’s verification of their diagnosis. Returning artists may disregard this.
• Participants must be 18 years of age or older as of the date of entry and must be a legal resident of the United States.
• All participants must complete a signed Digital Release Form. Please note that submissions are considered incomplete without this item and will not appear in the Showcase.
• Only two-dimensional, electronically submitted art pieces will be accepted. All three-dimensional types of art cannot be accepted unless they are photographed and digitally submitted.
• All participants are encouraged to submit a biography of 150 words or less, which will accompany their art display on MSAA’s website.

All eligible submissions will be featured on MSAA’s website beginning in March 2026 in recognition of MS Awareness Month. Throughout the year, 12 artists and their work will be highlighted as Artists of the Month, which will then be promoted on MSAA’s website, email campaigns, and social media platforms. To view submissions from previous Art Showcases, please visit our online gallery.

Please be sure to read through all Art Showcase rules and release form requirements prior to submitting your work. All submissions must be completed by January 9, 2026.

We hope to have your participation in MSAA’s 2026-2027 Art Showcase!
