FREE ENTRY / Open Source Gallery - Exhibition Proposal

We’re excited to announce that our 2026 Open Call for exhibitions is now open! 

Impacted by the open source movement—which promotes freely shared, educational software and information—Open Source Gallery applies a similar philosophy to create an approachable space dedicated to the accessibility of contemporary visual art. In addition to monthly exhibitions, which feature conceptually-driven art from both local and international artists, we offer many public programs that foster dialogue about art in our neighborhood.

For our 2026 Open Call, we invite applications from artists working in any medium and location, whose practices emphasize experimentation, sustainability, and social engagement. As part of this opportunity, selected artists will receive artist fees based on the W.A.G.E. certification schedule, a production budget, and support from Open Source in the form of planning, production and communications.
