HJ's Community Center Call for Artists

Call for 2027 Exhibition Season

NOW OPEN

• HJ's Community Center Call for Artists
  We are thrilled to open our call for exhibition proposals for the 2027 season! At HJ’s Community Center, we believe that art is a powerful bridge that connects us all. By exhibiting with us, you aren’t just hanging work on a wall; you are becoming a vital part of a vibrant, engaged community. Our gallery serves as a hub for local art lovers and neighbors who offer a warm and welcoming audience for your creative vision.

  To ensure your work gets the attention it deserves, we are increasing the duration of our exhibitions to approximately three months. This extended exposure allows for deeper community engagement and more meaningful dialogue around your art. Throughout the process, you will have the dedicated support of our Art Coordinator, Angie Jennings, who is committed to making your exhibition a success.

  We highly recommend visiting our beautiful gallery space before submitting to visualize how your collection will come to life. Only work that is wired or equipped with D-rings can be displayed on our specialized hanging system.

  
  A Special Invitation for Collaborative & Multi-Disciplinary Projects

  We are especially enthusiastic about proposals that push the boundaries of a traditional solo show! We warmly invite artists to partner with other creators—such as poets, musicians, or writers—to develop immersive, multi-disciplinary experiences. Whether you are proposing a mixed-media installation or a project that blends visual art with spoken word, we want to help you foster a cohesive and collaborative spirit in our gallery. Let's work together to create something truly unique for the Brookside community!

  DEADLINE TO APPLY FOR SOLO OR COLLABORATIVE EXHIBITION:  November 30, 2026, Notifications to be sent out 2nd week of December, 2026. 

  Please submit a full proposal below along with 10 images representative of your work and the proposed exhibition
