CALL FOR CENTRAL TEXAS ARTISTS: JURIED REGIONAL EXHIBITION

In conjunction with our fourth annual Summer Arts Festival,

Contracommon announces a regional call for artists working in any media within a 100 mile radius of our space for a juried group exhibition to coincide with the festival this year.

Contracommon fulfills an important need in the Central Texas region: increasing accessible opportunities to artists who do not have access to the galleries, experimental spaces or resources elsewhere. Community is one of the central principles of Contracommon, and we are proud to offer the chance to connect artists participating in the show, members of our studios, and our growing audience. We are pleased to provide this opportunity for artists in Central Texas, given the lack of contemporary art surveys specific to this region.

The exhibition will run from April 22nd to June 3rd, 2024, with the Summer Arts Festival occurring on Saturday, May 25th.

A panel of jurors local to the Central Texas arts community will select 10-15 artists to be included in the survey. Contracommon will support each artist selected to participate with a stipend to help cover shipping or travel costs.
