About this call

*NOW OPEN TO EVERYONE, YFAC MEMBERSHIP NOT NECESSARY*

Call for Artists: Riverside Arts Center presents Strange, Odd, + Curious, an online exhibition.​ 

As we enter quieter seasons, the Riverside Arts Center is hosting an online exhibition to spark curiosity and awe in our [super]natural world!
We are seeking work that engages with macabre, abstract, or metaphysical concepts. What inspires you to be curious? What questions have you been asking lately? 

This digital exhibition is designed to support artist visibility and aid in the sale of artist work through our website and social media channels.

Artists may submit 1–3 works of art. All artwork will remain in the artist's possession throughout the exhibition. Riverside Arts Center will facilitate sales for participating artists located in Southeastern Michigan and refer purchase inquiries directly to artists outside the region.

A 10% commission applies to sales processed through Riverside Arts Center. There is no fee to submit or participate.

Eligibility Criteria

Age: All ages are welcome to submit. Artists under 18 must submit parental/guardian consent.

Original Work: Work must be the original creation of the artist. AI-assisted work must be disclosed at submission.

Medium: All 2D and 3D visual art forms are welcome, including painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, mixed media, digital art, and video.

Location: Priority may be given to artists living in Ypsilanti or the surrounding areas.

Condition: Work must be in sale-ready condition. Artists must be able to deliver the work to the buyer promptly if it sells.

Copyright: No work infringing on the intellectual property of others will be accepted.
