Call for Artists – Pride Exhibition
Heidi Gallery is seeking fearless work for our upcoming Pride exhibition.
We’re inviting LGBTQ+ artists and allies to submit art that refuses to shrink, soften, or sanitize the human experience. This is an open-theme show — we want the raw, the radiant, the political, the messy, the joyful, the defiant.
Looking for work reflecting the everyday and the revolutionary.
Mediums welcome: painting, photography, sculpture, textile and digital.
Established, emerging and underrepresented artists encouraged to submit.
Allies are welcome to submit work that thoughtfully centers and uplifts LGBTQ+ voices —
Join us in celebrating Pride through art that reflects authenticity, courage, and community.
Submissions (maximum 3) are to be emailed as attachments to HeidiGallery@jsdd.org. See details below.
