apexart announces 2026-27 season with open calls for exhibitions
Apexart, a non-profit arts organization, has revealed its exhibition season for 2026-27, which will showcase ten selected proposals from its Open Calls initiative. This program encourages creatives worldwide to present their exhibition concepts, which are then anonymously evaluated by a jury. Each year, more than 1,000 proposals are received from over 1,500 participants spanning 103 countries. The chosen proposals are awarded budgets of up to 10,000 USD (for NYC) or 11,000 USD (for international projects) along with staff assistance. The upcoming season will feature five exhibitions in NYC and five abroad. The selection process prioritizes innovative ideas to promote inclusive curation. Currently, the call for proposals is open, with further information on apexart's website. Specific exhibition dates and venues will be announced later.
