Artist Call for Submissions Opportunity

Type: Exhibition Opportunities [View all]
Posted by: Multifaith Action Society
Deadline: Sun, January 31st, 2027

Each year, the Multifaith Action Society (Vancouver, BC) invites artists to submit works of art for publication in our annual Multifaith Calendar. The theme for our upcoming 2028 edition is: The Wonder Around Us

Deadline for submissions:  31 January 2027

In our upcoming 2028 Multifaith Calendar - The Wonder Around Us, we invite artists to consider the following:

Modern life is often hectic. Yet, when we slow down long enough to breathe and take in our surroundings, we see that we are blessed with a thousand exquisite moments that could fill us with wonder each day. The glints of sunlight reflecting off a still pond. The crunch of red leaves underfoot in the forest. A tiny flower beginning to reveal its colours as it comes into bloom. A crowd gathered to sing together in perfect harmony. A puppy experiencing fresh snowfall for the first time. Children’s peals of laughter as you hear them playing in the park. The beautiful tenderness of falling in love. Meeting a long-lost relative for the first time. Finding a poem or essay that perfectly expresses your inner thoughts.

Each of these experiences is commonplace in that it occurs somewhere every day. Yet its ubiquity doesn’t negate its sacredness. Rather, holiness may be found all around us in these beautiful moments of everyday life.

In our 2028 Multifaith Calendar - The Wonder Around Us, we invite artists to visualize the wonders of life, love, and community around us and to channel these visions of wonder into artwork that makes us all feel more blessed than we realize.

Submission Guidelines.....  Artists are invited to submit up to 5 works for consideration and artwork on this theme can be submitted in any medium. All artists are invited to submit, those who have been featured in past editions. Ultimately, the interpretation of the theme will be determined by the overall collection of images received.

How We Pay Artists.....  Selected artists will be offered an honorarium of $300 per monthly calendar image, $500 for the cover image, and $100 for smaller inset images placed throughout the Calendar. In addition, featured artists will receive a set of complimentary Calendars once published.

How to Submit Entries.....  Submit digital images (up to 5) in low resolution (jpg/72dpi) to: artsubmissions@multifaithaction.org

Should a piece be chosen, we will contact the artist and request a high resolution version of the image (min 400 dpi).
