Eligibility:

Not for profit:

Each summer Rochester Contemporary Art Center’s 6x6 exhibition brings together thousands of original artworks, made and donated by celebrities, international & local artists, designers, youth and YOU. Each artist may enter up to four artworks of any medium except glitter (2D or 3D). Artworks must be six inches square (15cm) and signed only on the back, to be exhibited anonymously. Participation is free. All artworks will be exhibited and for sale to the public for $20 each to benefit RoCo. Artists’ names will be revealed to the buyer upon purchase and all artworks remain on display through the end of the exhibition in July. Limit four artworks per school or school group (no limit for colleges).

Optional Theme: The City of Rochester Logo
This year, artists may choose to create a 6x6 featuring the City of Rochester’s logo. These “Flower City” artworks will be installed together on a dedicated wall as part of a community-wide celebration of this iconic graphic. This theme is entirely optional—as always, all 6x6 artworks will be accepted and displayed regardless of theme.

- NEW: The first 6000 artworks received will be exhibited in Gallery & Online. 6000+ will be exhibited online only. Send your art early to ensure in-gallery & online display.

- Artwork entry is FREE
