Voting 2 is open - vote by Oct. 19

The Academy of Western Artists has opened Voting 2 for awards recognizing 2025 work. Voting 2 is open to Professional members only

Professional members, this is your most important opportunity to give us your informed perspective on the submissions for 2025, and to help identify finalists.

You have voting access in the categories in which you work.

What Voting 1 Did

• Submissions receiving no votes in Voting 1 were not moved forward to Voting 2, unless there were five or fewer submissions for that award.
• You'll see the submissions ranked by the votes they received in Voting 1. Ties show the same rank.

How to Vote
Log in to your Academy account, and click "Vote for 2025." Use the green back buttons to move around.

We appreciate your input!

Voting 2 ends Oct. 19.
