Description

We have TWO exciting OPEN CALLS for Artists AEROSOL EUPHORIA: The Urban Street Art Scene is a national juried exhibition celebrating the raw power, rebellious spirit, and ecstatic energy of urban creativity. Inspired by the legendary graffiti-covered walls and alleys of NYC and beyond, this exhibition seeks to spotlight the full spectrum of street-influenced expression. Artists from across the country are invited to submit work that captures the pulse of urban life – its grit, its vibrancy, and its unfiltered voice. From aerosol-spray, gritty graffiti tags to the stories captured in street photography; we are looking for art that embodies the essence of street art. The art that lives outside the lines -- sprayed, tagged, pasted, sculpted, snapped and shouted. So, if your work drips with grit, color, voice and movement -- submit it today. ● Gallery Exhibition Dates: Saturday, September 19– Sunday, October 12, 2025 weekends 1‐6 P.M. ● Submission Deadline: Sunday, August 17, 2025 Full details on the link below. NuYoRICAN Soul We invite submissions from Puerto Rican, Nuyorican artists, and artists of any background whose work thoughtfully engages with Nuyorican themes, culture, history, or community --- whether through solidarity, collaboration, or deep personal interest. We’re looking for compelling artwork that captures the depth and complexity of the Nuyorican experience --- works that speak to the themes of migration, cultural memory, resilience, joy, and the dynamic relationship between the diaspora and the island. Both exhibitions will be curated by Tamavis D. Santiago, a Visual Artist and Independent Curator.
