Call for Entries Museum of Fine Arts

The mission of the Brownsville Museum of Fine Art includes the exhibition of contemporary art. The BMFA is accepting proposals for solo exhibition, and curated proposals for group exhibitions. The selected exhibitions will be at a professional level, innovative, educational, inclusive, and serve a diverse audience,

Proposals should demonstrate a consistency of vision and include:

New and original works that have not previously been exhibited in Brownsville or the lower Rio Grande Valley, a clearly articulated central theme or concept, artwork that address relevant social and cultural issues in the community, relevant themes in contemporary art, an Artist’s Talk and creative supplemental programming that compliments the proposed exhibition i.e.. workshops, lectures, panel discussions, educational evets, workshops, etc.

If selected, we will require the specifications of what will be included in the exhibition, an artist’s statement for display, and a listing of specifics about each work for labels. While we respect your original artistic vision, we retain the right to edit the exhibition. Selection will be based on the artwork submitted and there cannot be any substitutions or changes to the body of work. Gallery and month requests are not guaranteed and final decisions are based on the overall exhibition schedule. Artist must be 18 years or older. There is no funding for stipends, transportation, honorariums, printing postcards, printing catalogs, etc. Artists and Curators will be considered for another Solo Exhibition or Group Exhibition or Curated Exhibition at BMFA.
