apexart International Open Call 2027-28
apexart
You should apply if you want to organize a group show outside New York — anyone anywhere can propose one.
About
apexart's International Open Call funds original, idea-driven group exhibitions anywhere in the world except New York City, chosen by an anonymous crowdsourced jury of more than 600 people. Each selected exhibition gets a $10,000 budget: up to $8,000 for travel, shipping, honorariums, equipment and installation, and up to $2,000 as the organizer's honorarium for coordinating the show and writing its brochure essay, plus up to $1,000 matched for venue rental. Applicants submit one anonymous 500-word proposal between February 1 and March 1, 2027, for the 2027-28 season.
Eligibility
Anyone from anywhere, regardless of experience: artists, curators, writers and other creative people, individually or as teams. Past International Open Call winners cannot apply again. The exhibition must be outside NYC, in a place the organizer knows.
