    True Colors Collective who will not only act as jurors for the show but will also a receive a portion of the proceeds

    This open call is for the BIPOC, AAPI and LGBTQIA+ communities only.  We dedicate this exhibition to showcase and celebrate the work that embodies all that you are as artists.


    There is no theme to this one except self expression. We would love to see your personal favorites within your collection. Feel free to include the back story, or why you chose them in your description. We have found that including the description with the work helps people connect to the artist and the piece. 


    Acceptance will be based solely on how the art can be curated. Anyone not accepted into this show will be saved as artists to reach out to for later dates.


    To increase accessibility and acknowledge the wealth gap between marginalized communities, the submission fee has been reduced to $20. 


    When choosing your work for submission, please keep in mind that Eclipse is a family friendly space. Although partial nudity is ok, art with overtly sexual imagery and full frontal nudity is not. Please use the same discretion when selecting poetry to submit.
