There are no calls for art open at this time. To be notified about future opportunities, follow ArtsConnection on Instagram @teens.artsconnection and sign up for the Teen Programs newsletter.

STUDENT ARTISTS

Student Art Program Artists will: 

• Submit a drawing, painting, photo, print, or collage – art in any medium that can be framed. 
• Write a short statement about how your work responds to the theme 
• Build your portfolio through our prompts 2-3 times each year 
• If your art is selected; have your work exhibited in one of our corporate partners’ office spaces 
• Connect with a community of teen artists from all over NYC 
• Be awarded a $100 gift card from BLICK Art Materials;  
• Be a VIP guest at the opening reception and award ceremony – where you can bring your family, see your work, meet other teen artists, and celebrate your accomplishments! 

TEACHERS

Do you teach art or work with NYC Public School students in grades 6-12?

Are you looking for opportunities for the young people you work with to exhibit their artwork?

If your student is selected to exhibit, you will:

• attend an opening reception and award ceremony with your student
• connect with a community of teachers and student artists
• receive a $100 Blick gift card (1-per exhibition)

Students can fill out the online application on their own, or submit work with their teacher.

THANK YOU for the work that you do with your students. You are an important resource and guide for them at every stage of their artwork development and their application process. Feel free to share this opportunity with your colleagues.
