Every season, CFWS invites the membership to participate in our Annual Juried Show. Our members submit their best original work to a Juror, who reviews the submissions and choses the best to hang in the show. The Juror is also asked to name a number of award recognitions.

The work is available for purchase, to study, to simply enjoy. The show is open to the public during SOBO’s
regular operating hours. Include this show in your calendar, stop by and see our wonderful display of watercolors by local artists.
Opening Reception was held March 15, 2026 when
awards were announced and artists recognized.

Hosted by the
Winter Garden Art Association & SOBO Gallery
Winter Garden, Florida
March 2 – March 27, 2026

Our sponsors provided their support by providing generous donations.
Please, support them as a thanks for their patronage.

“I was honored to have the opportunity to jury the Central Florida Watercolor Society exhibition.
Understanding how difficult it is to put yourself out there, every artist needs to realize each is a winner for competing.
As I walked this strong show I was looking for the wow factors, maybe an emotional response,
something I may not have seen before.
Giving awards is very subjective and is only one persons’ opinion, that is why as an artist,
follow your heart, listen to your own voice and please yourself.
It is about the journey and the vision, so take that time to create and express yourself.” Teresa Kirk
