Solo and Group Exhibition Proposals, Delaplaine Arts Center Frederick — Round Closing 14 November 2026
The Delaplaine Arts Center
Standing call of the Delaplaine Arts Center in Frederick, Maryland, for solo and group exhibition proposals, reviewed every other month. The panel looks for a clear, cohesive message that reaches a broad audience and fits the spaces; artists are not judged on their backgrounds or writing skills — it is about the art. Next rounds: 15 November – 14 January, then every two months.
