The Portrait Society of America is pleased to announce a Call for Entries for a new art competition, The Future Generation.

The top three awards will receive cash and prizes, worldwide recognition in International Artist magazine, The Art of the Portrait quarterly journal and on the Portrait Society’s website and social media platforms.
