Our employee art exhibition is just one part of an NTC initiative designed to recognize the diverse and sometimes overlooked talents of employees.

Judges from the professional art community select pieces for the Artists at Work collection. The competition is open to UAW-represented and non-bargaining unit Chrysler employees at U.S. locations, as well as staff members at the National Training Center (NTC), UAW-Chrysler Technology Training Center (TTC) and UAW-Chrysler Regional Family Training Centers. Members of the UAW’s Chrysler Department also are eligible to enter.

Family members, UAW-Chrysler retirees or Chrysler contract employees are not eligible to participate.

The program is open to original art in various visual mediums. There are no restrictions on the number of pieces that may be entered.

The most recent competition was concluded Oct. 14, 2010, with a Reception and Exhibition at the TTC (see the slide show at upper right on this page).

No new competition has yet been scheduled. When it is, it will be announced through a letter to all eligible employees..

But right now, you can browse more than 1,000 individual works from eight exhibitions here on the site by clicking the links below.

In addition, the links at right will take you to slide shows and video clips that include walk-through tours and interviews from several Artists at Work receptions, as well as one artist's unique vision in his own words.
