Nebraska Art Teachers Association 2026 Exhibition

The Nebraska Art Teachers Association (NATA) is a professional organization serving art educators living and working throughout Nebraska. Through advocacy, professional development, and equitable access to resources, NATA supports excellence in arts education while cultivating vibrant and inclusive communities of artists and educators across the state.

The annual exhibition is a juried show featuring the work of current and retired K–12 public, private, and homeschool art educators, as well as faculty from museums, colleges, and universities. The exhibition also welcomes artwork from undergraduate and graduate art education majors who are members of the student chapter.

This year’s exhibition, juried by Nebraska artist Jeremy Hansen, brings together 45 art educators, offering visitors an eclectic collection. From traditional to contemporary approaches across a wide variety of media, each artwork reflects a unique creative voice, inviting viewers to experience the passion, curiosity, and lifelong commitment to the visual arts that these educators bring to both their classrooms and their studio practices.
