Art Calls Storied: Narrative Art
Opportunity Description
U.S. National Deadline: November 9, 2025 – Storied is a juried group exhibition open to all narrative art!
Narrative artwork is that which tells a story. Whether it be a personal experience, a historical happening, or an imagined tale… narrative artwork brings us together in a shared experience of curiosity and interpretation. It allows artists to communicate directly to the viewer, pulling them in to a moment in time or a sequence of events.
From Frida Kahlo’s many hauntingly beautiful self portraits to Artemisia Gentileschi’s interpretation of “Susanna and the Elders,” and even as far back as cave paintings, artists have always found ways to tell a story through their work. At its very core, art is a form of communication, allowing its viewer to think and feel, interpret and explore, learn and grow.
This exhibition is open to all those who tell stories, in any medium.
The exhibition will take place Jan 8 – Feb 8, 2026.
ELIGIBILITY
Any medium is welcome and all artists 18+ years of age residing in the United States are eligible.
ENTRY FEE
$12 per entry, up to 10 entries.
SALES
All artwork sales are subject to a 35% sales fee. Artists will be mailed a check for sold work following the close of the exhibition.
