Shine your light & showcase your artwork!

Artists will either paint or hand draw an original 8” x 8” piece, incorporating our theme of a sun in the artwork. If selected, the artwork will be recreated in various locations around Sunny Isles Beach. We are excited to see your submissions and to have our local artists’ work showcased for all of Sunny Isles Beach to enjoy!
Submission Deadline: July 1, 2022
Submission Location:
Sunny Isles Beach Visitor Center,

Should I sign the painting?
Please include your name, whether it is on the front or the back of the painting, so that we may identify you. If you do sign the front of the painting, please print your name on the back just so we are able to clearly read your name.
