Call for Artists

Phoenix Gallery, located at 1829 S. Halsted St., is an art and empowerment space that is now open in the Chicago Arts District. We are looking for a stylistically and culturally diverse group of artists that are interested in becoming a part of our creative family. The collective artists will be promoted and displayed throughout the calendar year, and artists who sign up for a year long term will also be featured in their own solo exhibition. Please note that the collaborative is not commission based. Instead, there is a small monthly rental/promotional fee. There are varying rental lengths available, and you do not have to be a Chicago resident in order to apply.

Interested parties should send an artist's statement, a resume/CV, and at least 5 samples of work to artists@phoenixgroupchicago.com. Considerations are ongoing, however, once we have filled our team for 2010-11, no additional entries will be accepted.
