Calling Visual Artists of Every Stripe. . .
Since I featured writing contests last time it seemed only fair that I include opportunities for visual artists, too. I suspect that some of these charge entry fees, but they should be nominal. Also, I'm not sure about certain closing dates so you might want to double check. Great gobs of good luck!
