BLINK 2026: ARTIST AND PROPOSAL SUBMISSIONS NOW OPEN – DEADLINE: OCTOBER 8TH, 2025

Now entering its fifth edition, BLINK is one of the largest light, art, and projection experiences in the nation. Since its inception in 2017, it transforms over 30 city blocks across Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky with large-scale projection mapping, interactive light-based installations, and murals. In 2024, more than 2 million people experienced the festival.

BLINK celebrates the power of public art to build community, spark imagination, and create moments of shared wonder. From immersive installations to projection mapping and painted walls that come to life, the experience is made possible by artists from across the region and around the world.

We invite you to submit a proposal and be part of BLINK 2026, taking place October 8 to 11 in Cincinnati, Ohio.
