Warimono invites visual artists to submit their works for our upcoming exhibition, Limbo. This exhibition explores the tension between stasis and movement, balancing on the edge of being neither here nor there. We seek artworks that delve into themes of suspension, balance, and the in-between. The exhibition will run on our website from December 1, 2024 to January 10, 2025. No fee to apply. Artists retain 100% of sales.

Queer Women’s Artist Lab: New Orleans
Kolaj Institute and Kasini House’s Art Meets History project are organizing a Queer Women’s Artist Lab: New Orleans, 18-22 November 2024.
Early Deadline to Apply: Thursday, 26 September 2024
Final Deadline to Apply: Thursday, 10 October 2024
Submissions will be reviewed on a rolling basis until space is filled. Artists are encouraged to apply well before the deadline.
During the lab, artists will make collage to explore artist practice, process, and meaning making. Artists will explore the queer geography and history of New Orleans and consider how similar geographies and histories from their home communities may inform their proposal. Artists will complete the Lab with a project proposal for a contemporary art project (an exhibition or a book) and a sample work that will be considered for an exhibition that will take place in 2025 or 2026.
The goal of the Queer Women’s Artist Lab: New Orleans is to equip artists with tools and strategies for picking up the unfinished work of history and speak to contemporary civic discourse around social, economic, and environmental issues. Through interactive sessions in the Lab and panel discussions, artists will explore their process and practice; present a slideshow of their work; receive supportive, critical, curatorial feedback about their ideas; and discuss contemporary issues.

Call For Artists: Small Spaces, Big Impact
The Colusa County Arts Council, through the Public Art Projects program, is seeking artists to design
and install public art on municipal and privately-owned spaces throughout Colusa County as part
of our “Small Spaces, Big Impact” project. The intent of this project is to activate public spaces
throughout Colusa County with mural artwork on small walls or surfaces.
This project has $12,000 in available funds for up to five artists to complete projects on publicly accessible walls/spaces no
bigger than 10’ x 15’ or 150 square feet.
The themes and subject matter of selected artwork for “Small Spaces, Big Impact,” as determined by the Public Arts Advisory Committee, are:
- Celebration of the region’s rich, diverse cultural history
- Celebration of local flora/fauna/landscape
- Celebration of rural life
The selected artwork(s) must have qualities considered to be pleasant, uplifting, and inspirational. Selected artwork must be the original creation of the artist. The Public Arts Advisory Committee will determine the eligible installation locations.
All artwork materials must have a minimum lifespan as specified in their proposal, and artists must provide a maintenance plan for the work. An agreement with the artist with a specified term (from 5 to 20 years) and maintenance requirements is required. After the term of the agreement expires, the artwork may be removed, covered over, updated to extend its lifespan, or modified to meet future community objectives.
The application and project overview is available at https://www.colusa-arts.org/news/paac-call-for-artists-2024.
Proposals are due by September 30, 2024.
