NELA Arts Council Exhibition Open Call
Exhibition
We’re kicking off the new year with a reminder that our year-round Open Call for Artists is open, and we’re currently seeking submissions for four solo exhibition slots in our 2027 season. This call is open to visual artists working in 2D, 3D, sculpture, and select installation work, with flexibility depending on the space. Most exhibitions are wall-based using our hanging system, so submitted work should be ready to install in a gallery setting. Artists at any stage of their career are encouraged to apply. Full submission details and requirements are available on our website.

Arts in Partnership: Louisiana Delta Community College Call For Art
Exhibition
The Louisiana Delta Community College Library is in a season of transformation. Its spaces are changing, collections are growing, and its purpose on campus continues to evolve.
The word Delta means change - both in name and in symbol - and this exhibition explores that idea through visual art created by artists across Northeast Louisiana.
We’re seeking work that reflects transformation, growth, becoming, or change in any form. Artists may interpret this theme in personal, cultural, educational, environmental, emotional, or abstract ways. Show us what it looks like to shift, to move forward, or to evolve into something new.
All wall-hanging mediums suitable for a public educational space will be considered, including painting, mixed media, photography, digital art, fiber works, and other installation-ready pieces
