2024-2025 Cultural Council for Palm Beach County Solo Exhibition

The Cultural Council for Palm Beach County invites Palm Beach County-based emerging or professional visual artists to apply for a solo exhibition in the Council's solo gallery, approximately 390 square feet with a moveable wall. The 2024-2025 schedule will include six solo shows that run for six weeks each.

Artists should submit an exhibition proposal, brief bio, and up to seven images of individual artworks. Artwork may be any medium including photography, video, work on paper, sculptural installations, crafts, and textiles. Files must be jpg, not larger than 5 MB per file. Include all artwork information (Title, Date, Dimensions, Medium, Edition, Run length, Insurance Value). The artist must be the sole author and owner of the title and copyright of all artwork entered. Please list top three choices for show dates in the application. Submissions are accepted only through the online platform CaFE.

Selected artists will receive a stipend to offset exhibition expenses, a printed announcement postcard (300 cards), an opening reception for up to 50 guests, inclusion on the Council's website and in newsletters and press announcements, exhibition signage, and opportunity to be featured in the Council's social media program (total value: $3,500). The Council retains 25% of all art sales. Selected artists are responsible for delivery and pickup of artwork and must sign a Memorandum of Understanding and fine art loan agreement. Artwork will be insured on premises if a list of artwork titles, descriptions, and values is presented prior to delivery. Artwork is not insured in transit. The Council cannot store artwork for later pickup; artwork must be picked up on designated de-installation days. All applicants will receive email notification of their application status by June 14, 2024. Possible show dates are October 11 - November 30, 2024; December 6, 2024 – January 18, 2025; January 24 – March 8, 2025; March 14 – April 26, 2025; May 2 – June 14, 2025; and June 20 – August 2, 2025 (subject to change).
