Type: Exhibition Opportunities [View all]
Posted by: Cal Poly Humboldt
Deadline: Sun, May 4th, 2025
The Reese Bullen Gallery at Cal Poly Humboldt is currently accepting exhibition proposals for the 2026-27 and 2027-28 academic years. The Reese Bullen Gallery seeks proposals from both nationally-recognized and emerging artists and curators. Proposals will be considered for solo, two-person, and small group exhibitions. In addition to the open call for proposals, the committee is also looking for visual artists whose studio practice aligns with the interdisciplinary and/or community-based aspects of the university’s purpose and vision.
The Exhibition Committee will evaluate exhibition proposals from artists, groups of artists, and curators based on the following criteria:
The proposal makes innovative use of concepts, materials, themes, and space. The artist(s) CV/resume reflects exhibitions and other art activities on a regional, national, or international level. Special consideration will be given to proposals that promote community engagement through interactive or educational activities associated with the exhibition. Examples include: a public lecture, studio visits, demonstrations, workshops, exploratory walks, or other forms of interaction tailored to the artist’s medium, interest, or experience. Humboldt serves students from a broad range of cultural heritages, socioeconomic backgrounds, genders, ability, and orientations. Therefore, we prioritize artists who demonstrate they understand the benefits diverse perspectives bring to a professional educational community.
