Call for Artists & Poets

Radical Love an exhibition of Art and Poetry for 2025 Saturday, June 7 - Friday, July 11

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

Artists and poets are mirrors to the human experience with a language all their own that can cross boundaries in a unique way. They are historians, educators and connectors, breaking barriers and shining their light into the darkness. 

For this show, please submit the work that speaks to your experience as an individual, an artist, a member of your community and society a whole. 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 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 $15.
