2027 Open Call for Art

The Dairy Arts Center invites artists, curators, and collectives to apply for their 2027 Call for Art Exhibitions. They are seeking bold, thoughtful exhibition proposals across all visual art mediums. Selected artists will work closely with Curator of Visual Arts Stella Witcher to develop exhibitions presented in 2027. Their Visual Arts Program centers innovative, socially engaged, and conceptually driven work that sparks dialogue and reflects the complexity of their contemporary moment. They are particularly interested in projects rooted in storytelling, cultural inquiry, community connection, and experimental approaches to material and form. They welcome proposals for solo or group exhibitions that challenge assumptions, expand perspectives, and invite audiences into meaningful exchange—whether through personal narrative, collective history, ecological inquiry, or boundary-pushing visual practice.
