A total of 100 works of art were selected from those submitted for the Artist Showcase. A professional from outside the eligible region with expertise in the visual arts was selected to choose the work for exhibition and awards. The staff and board of the Art Center are never involved in the selection process. The juror for the 2022 Mary S. Oakley & Lee Lindsay Artist Showcase was Janie Stamm, a St. Louis-based artist and MFA recipient from Washington University.
