About Apply for Art
Apply for Art is a curated platform designed to help artists, curators, and creatives discover and access the right opportunities — faster. From open calls and exhibitions to residencies, grants, and publications, we gather them all in one place so you can focus on what matters most: creating your work.
We understand how time-consuming it can be to search dozens of websites, read through long descriptions, and keep track of deadlines. That’s why every opportunity on Apply for Art is carefully selected, summarized, and organized for clarity. We highlight only the most relevant details — location, deadlines, fees, eligibility, and how to apply — with direct links to the original source.
To make browsing even easier, we use a color-coded category system — and each color is dedicated to a specific type of open call. This system is consistent across our entire website and Instagram, making it quick and intuitive to identify whether you’re looking at a residency, exhibition, grant, publication, or other opportunity.
Our mission is simple: connect artists with opportunities that truly fit their vision and career path, regardless of their discipline, background, or location. Whether you’re an emerging artist seeking your first exhibition or an experienced creative looking for international exposure, Apply for Art is your trusted space to stay informed, inspired, and connected.
