2026 Call for Art for the Phipps Galleries Submission

Look for deadline and submission information in January 2026

The Phipps Center for the Arts invites artists to submit their work for consideration for solo, two-person and small group exhibition opportunities in the professional exhibition spaces of the Phipps Galleries for the 2027-2028 season. Artists may also choose to be considered for our Enriching Arts program which brings original art to community exhibition locations, including healthcare and senior living facilities in Minnesota and Wisconsin.

We welcome traditional and non-traditional media, including but not limited to painting, sculpture, digital art, photography, printmaking, drawing, fiber, ceramics, video, and installation.

The Phipps is looking for a diverse range of perspectives, styles, and techniques and we encourage artists of all backgrounds and media to apply.

Dates: coming soon

Selection Process:

Submissions will be anonymously juried by the Arts Engagement Director and members of the Phipps Visual Arts Council which includes artists, art professionals and those with an interest in promoting the arts in the St. Croix Valley. We will evaluate submissions based on creativity, technical skill, and overall impact. Artists who have exhibited in the Phipps galleries within the past two years are not eligible for consideration (excluding Members' Spotlight and large group exhibitions).

Work must be recently completed, original, and executed solely by the artist. All work must be gallery-ready for exhibition. The Phipps reserves the right to determine acceptability. We look forward to seeing your work!
