Portfolio Waterworks Visual Arts Center’ Exhibition Opportunities
Opportunity Description
International Deadline: January 30, 2030 – Waterworks Visual Arts Center is nationally accredited by the American Alliance of Museums as a non-collecting art museum. Each year Waterworks presents three major rotating exhibitions of contemporary fine art and craft by local, regional, national and international artists who present a range of compelling visual work, including an annual outdoor sculpture show.
We welcome submissions from established and emerging artists with credentials. Submissions are reviewed within 60–90 days following the two annual deadlines and are for review only—not a guarantee of exhibition.
Submission deadlines are January 30 and September 30 of each year. Address submissions to the attention of “Exhibitions.”
The exhibitions calendar is planned approximately 18-24 months in advance to give artists ample time to prepare or create new work for the show.
GALLERIES
Waterworks Visual Arts Center has five interior exhibition spaces totaling over 2,500 square feet. Our galleries are spacious, well lit and installation friendly. Located on the the first floor of our building, the galleries are easily accessible. We also have three exterior installation spaces/gardens. All of our galleries are open to the public six days a week, and are free to see.
