Curator Call!

Exhibition Proposals
Art Interactive, a non-profit exhibition space in Cambridge, MA, invites curators to submit proposals for 8-week exhibitions. Art Interactive’s mission is to provide a public forum that fosters self-expression and human interaction through the development and exhibition of art that is contemporary, experimental, and participatory. Learn more about Art Interactive’s past exhibitions on this site.

Art Interactive encourages proposals that present work in any media, but each proposal must address the goals described in the curatorial mission statement. Please note that Art Interactive discourages artists who are acting as curators from submitting proposals that include their own work.

Gallery Space

Art Interactive is located in the Central Square neighborhood of Cambridge, MA. The exhibition space is approximately 2,000 square feet with 16-foot ceilings. Two exterior glass walls provide extensive natural light, and space can be partitioned by four movable modular wall panels. Visits to space during gallery hours are encouraged, and a floor plan is available upon request.

Equipment

A list of hardware available for exhibition purposes is available upon request.

Budget

Art interactive commits $5450 for each exhibition and will work with curators to determine an appropriate exhibition budget and fundraising plan.
