New Open Call For Art! SaveArtSpace: As Above, So Below Curator: Marlon Pruz Location: Miami, FL Open call ends: October 19, 2026 SaveArtSpace is proud to present As Above, So Below, a public art exhibition on bus shelter ad space during Miami Art Week in Miami, FL, opening November 27, 2026, curated by Marlon Pruz. As Above, So Below explores the idea that the patterns of the universe are reflected within us, and that the inner world is inseparable from the outer one. The theme considers the relationship between the cosmic to the earthly and the microscopic to the infinite. Similar to how electrons orbiting an atomic nucleus mimics the planets orbiting the sun, the golden ratio and other recurring patterns found throughout nature further suggest an underlying order connecting all forms of life. "As curator, I will be looking for work that creates a strong visual or conceptual dialogue between these realms, imagery that connects the body to nature, humanity to the cosmos, consciousness to environment, and the intimate to the infinite." —Marlon Pruz. Artists of all ages and talents are invited to submit their artwork between September 23 and October 19, 2026 in order to be considered for the exhibition. This is an opportunity to have your work placed on bus shelter ad space in Miami, FL, during the biggest art event of the year. Learn more: https://www.saveartspace.org/miami26

Home Is Where I Make It explores the various experiences of making homes in places unknown and how those places become core parts of us. So many of us whether immigrants ourselves or children of immigrants have a talent for building new rituals and making anywhere a home.

SaveArtSpace: Wild & Free Curator: Gigi Chen Location: New York, NY Open call ends: May 11, 2026 SaveArtSpace is proud to present Wild & Free, a public art exhibition on billboard ad space in New York, NY, opening June 26, 2026, curated by Gigi Chen. Wild & Free is about the close connection between nature, mythology and civilization. Nature is such a central part of my life and work. I grew up in Queens in New York City and never even saw the woods until I was a young adult. It was such a sublime feeling when I experienced natural darkness in a forest for the first time. That initial excitement and exhilaration of being present with the trees and feeling the rocks beneath my feet is deeply ingrained within myself. As a contemporary wildlife-focused artist and a burgeoning nature photographer living in a big urban city, I have grown to appreciate the beauty and dangers of the natural world as it contends with humankind. Civilization was built on the back of nature and you really cannot separate them. Birds nest on the cornices of buildings and rats run around with the backdrop of neon lights glinting in the distance. Mixed in the disarray, are moments of magic and countless stories of adaptation. - Gigi Chen We invite artists of all ages and talents to submit their artwork between March 30 and May 11, 2026 in order to be considered for the exhibition.

Submissions are now open for the third annual Teen Art Exhibition at NSU Art Museum, Lost & Found. Submit your artwork through our digital application by February 6th to have your work considered for exhibition and for a chance to win prizes! Lost & Found is a dynamic celebration of the fleeting, the forgotten, and the rediscovered, showcasing the vibrant creativity of teens from diverse backgrounds. In this annual exhibition, we explore the delicate balance between what slips away and what reappears, celebrating the beauty in both loss and discovery. Each piece invites viewers into a world where hidden treasures of imagination, personal memories, and whimsical moments come to life through the eyes of young artists. The works on display in Lost & Found offer a glimpse into the unique ways teens interpret the process of finding and losing. The exhibition captures the magic of youth in transition, where moments of clarity often emerge unexpectedly amid the chaos of growing up. Whether through photography, sculpture, painting, or digital media—teens reveal their stories of what has been lost and what has returned, often in forms they could never have anticipated. Through moments of wonder, whimsy, and insight, these works highlight the power of art to bring what is forgotten back into focus, offering a visual representation of how we navigate our personal histories, dreams, and desires. Lost & Found is a testament to the resilience of creativity, and a reminder that sometimes, the most profound discoveries are made when we least expect them.
