SHOWING VISUAL ART AT MYARTS

MADISON YOUTH ARTS CENTER CALL FOR YOUTH ART!

MYArts has an enormous amount of space to display rotating exhibits of visual art by and for young people, from preschoolers to high school students.

 

  • MYArts is seeking organizations like schools, community centers, community organizations, etc. that would like to display art by youth program participants in the MYArts building.

 

  • Art displayed at MYArts should support our goals of cultivating inclusion, discovery, and collaboration; we hope the artists and artwork displayed MYArts will reflect our community as a whole.

 

  • Art should primarily be 2D and ideally can be on display for 1-3 months.

SHOWING VISUAL ART AT MYARTS

What MYArts can offer:

  • Space to display young people’s 2D artwork + appropriate hardware for hanging works on paper, cardboard, foam core, or framed pieces.

     

  • Print artwork credits.

 

  • Share information about your group’s work on our social media.

 

  • Coordinate a time for an informal “open house” so families and community members connected to your program can come view the art pieces.

Requirements

  • Ideally, shows should hang for a minimum of two weeks; 1-3 months preferred.

     

  • Most artworks should be 2D–we have limited capacity to display 3D art work safely.

 

  • Artwork should foster a spirit of inclusivity.
    • Artwork should be appropriate for young children to view.
    • Artworks should not have graphic depictions of sex or violence.
    • Artworks should not demonize individuals, groups, or specific political parties.
