ARTIST & VENDOR SUBMISSION FORM OPEN UNTIL OCT 4TH FOR COFA 2024

This year’s Queer Art Show, "Space to Be," celebrates the expansive and transformative journey of queer identity. In a world where personal and collective space is often contested, we invite artists to explore and express the liberating essence of simply existing—boldly and authentically—in their own skin.

"Space to Be" is more than a theme; it’s a declaration of the right to take up space with pride and freedom. It’s about embracing the vastness of who we are and demanding room for our diverse experiences and narratives. Through their art, our participants will delve into the myriad ways queer individuals assert their presence, confront boundaries, and reclaim environments both real and imagined.

This show is a tribute to the power of visibility and the necessity of safe, affirming spaces. Each piece contributes to a larger conversation about inclusion, self-expression, and the vibrant spectrum of queer life. By showcasing these works, we honor the courage it takes to live openly and celebrate the myriad ways that queer voices and perspectives enrich our world.

Join us as we create a collective space where every shade of queer identity can flourish and be seen. Welcome to "Space to Be," where art becomes a testament to our right to exist, thrive, and celebrate the fullness of who we are.

Submissions Due October 4th by 11:59pm.
