diversity

Crossing Arts is currently accepting submissions for solo and group exhibitions, as well as proposals for exhibits that specifically address diversity, inclusion, and equity. We are seeking submissions to exhibit during 2025, please review the guidelines below before submitting your work. 

All artists living in the United States are encouraged to apply (a very strong and consistent body of work is essential).  Open to all traditional and non-traditional art forms and media. Artwork must not have been previously exhibited with  Crossing Arts. All submissions will be reviewed and juried by the Crossing Arts Gallery Committee, which is made up of  working professional artists, educators, and art organization leaders in our local community.  

Artists are invited to submit original artwork for Monmouth University’s new art exhibit, Diversity Lives Here: Representation Through Art.

The United States is more racially and ethnically diverse than ever before. Subsequently, higher education institutions are now comprised of a more diverse community. Despite an increasingly more diverse population, many colleges and universities (especially predominantly white institutions) have physical spaces that do not represent their own communities. Monmouth University is committed to change! We have dedicated spaces to display jury-selected artwork in every academic building to ensure everyone in the Monmouth University community will see themselves represented and celebrated within our halls.
