City Without Walls. Our first open opportunity is for a major

details | CURATORIAL PROCESS

Curators or co-curators are free to select any artists of their
choosing, including their own artwork. They are not required to select
cWOW members, and selected artists are not required to become members.
However, curators must review all member entries, and are encouraged
to ask artists whom they solicit to join. This process ensures the
highest-quality independent selection, while also providing crucial
support for our award-winning exhibition, education, and residency
programs. The exhibitions are open to all media and sizes of visual
art, including 2-D, 3-D, new media, performance art, etc. An open call
for work will be posted to accompany each curatorial proposal. There
will be a public reception, catalog, announcement cards, email blasts
and other publicity for each exhibit. Accepted proposals will be
awarded a $500 honorarium.

entry materials | BY EMAIL ONLY

Proposals must include (a) the curator’s resume, (b) a brief concept
statement for a group exhibition with multiple artists, and (c) sample
images. Prospective curators are encouraged but not required to join
to be considered for this opportunity, with a minimum annual donation
