Kora Art Collective is calling all emerging and mid-career artists of African descent to submit work for a two-part exhibition titled First Encounter: Presented by Kora Art Collective, to be featured at the Austin Studio Tour, one of Texas's largest art events. We are seeking works across a range of mediums, including paintings, drawings, prints, photography, and sculpture, from emerging and mid-career artists of African descent. We're also open to select craft-based work, considered individually alongside the visual art submissions.
