This is the centennial year for the Historic 1908 Courthouse of Grayson County in Independence , Virginia . Since this is the most recognized building in Grayson County with its unique architecture and prominent location in the center of town, it has been the subject of many photographs, paintings, and drawings.

In celebration of the 100th birthday of this historic landmark, the Courthouse Foundation is inviting all artists, young and old, amateur and professional, who have created an original likeness of the 1908 Courthouse to show their work in a grand exhibition from September 7th through October 12th this fall. There will be no awards given since each artist who participates is already a winner.

There is no entry fee, and no judging. All art must be easily wall hung, such as paintings, photographs, textiles, or drawings. Pictures should be no more than 32” x 40” including frame. All art work should have a tag with the artist’s name, address, and telephone number attached. Sale of items will be left to the artists. The 1908 Courthouse is protected by a security system.

An Artists Reception and opening will be held Sunday, September 7th 3-5pm. There will be no awards given. Each artist is invited to attend for a group photo and recognition for their ‘Beloved 1908’.
