OPEN CALL FOR PROPOSALS

Art in Odd Places 2026: UTOPIAS
SENSE | DREAM | BODY | CARE | CONNECT
Deadline:  April 21, 2026, 11:59pm EST

Art in Odd Places (AiOP) 2026: UTOPIAS, the 21st edition of Art in Odd Places,  curated by Arantxa Araujo & Pancho López, scheduled for September 26 & 27, 12-5pm on 14th Street, NYC invites proposals that inhabit the city not as it is, but as it could be—transforming 14th Street into a living laboratory for collective dreams, radical care, and shared futures, as this festival has been doing for over two decades. We invite individual artists and collectives to propose projects for this outdoor public visual and performance art festival taking place in New York City. We welcome projects that use installations, performance, actions, gestures, sound, and participatory practices to activate public space and spark imagination. We encourage artists to create situations where audiences can listen, participate, and reflect—where complexity becomes felt, and dialogue can emerge. Whether through solo works or collaborative interventions, we seek projects that propose speculative infrastructures for care, refusal, joy, and mutual recognition—projects that invite passersby into acts of listening, resting, mourning, celebration, or play.
