Würth Industry USA Launches Juried Art Competition for Virginia Students
Under the banner of "Move Forward," Würth Industry USA is launching its inaugural juried art exhibition to establish a new corporate fine art collection. The company is inviting college students across Virginia to submit original works that interpret themes of innovation, momentum, and progress through various creative mediums.
The exhibition, scheduled for November 5, 2026, at the company’s Roanoke headquarters, draws on the Würth Group’s global legacy of supporting the arts, which includes a collection of over 20,000 works. By opening the competition to students currently enrolled in Virginia colleges and universities, the firm aims to foster local creativity while building a permanent American collection.
Participants must submit original pieces completed within the last three years, spanning disciplines such as painting, photography, digital prints, and mixed media. A jury panel will evaluate the entries during the November event, awarding top prizes to the works that best capture the spirit of growth. According to Würth Industry USA President Chapman Revercomb, the initiative reflects the family-owned company’s broader commitment to investing in the cultural health of the communities where its employees reside. Interested artists have until October 9, 2026, to submit their entries for consideration.
