Critical Mass 12 Artist Call

Applications are open to showcase your work at Critical Mass 12! The deadline is Thursday March, 28, 2024. Don’t miss this amazing opportunity!

CRITICAL MASS is the annual Invitational Exhibition for all Artists who reside/own property in the 9 parishes of Northwest Louisiana: Beinville, Bossier, Caddo, Claiborne, DeSoto, Natchitoches, Red River, Sabine, and Webster. The purpose of the Critical Mass exhibition is to showcase the professional and emerging Artists in Northwest Louisiana and to provide professional Critical Review for Artists spanning all art disciplines.

The Visual, Literary and Performing Arts Critics (combined) will each choose a “Best of Show” award winner within their respective discipline. The award is given to the ONE WORK in the Visual Arts Exhibition, Literary Presentation, and Performance Showcase that compels the Critic to “want to see more!” This will result in a $5,000 Prize, divided with $2,500 as the Award Prize and $2,500 Commission Fee to create a solo presentation with at least 50% new works presented in the following Spring. There will be published Critical Review by the Critic that selected the work. Artists submitting work to Critical Mass must commit to a solo exhibition to open in Spring the following year.
