SLC Arts Call for Artists - 2023 Solo Exhibition Opportunity
Ogdensburg International Airport


About


SLC Arts is accepting submissions for their second series of solo exhibition shows held at the Ogdensburg International Airport in 2024. Each show will feature an individual artist and will provide the opportunity to exhibit their work in the North Country. The deadline for submission is Sunday, October 22, 2023.

Through a juried process, artists will be selected for up to one of the six available solo exhibitions throughout 2024. Accepted artists will have their work on display for two months in a seated waiting area inside the airport. Artists may submit for multiple show dates, but selection is limited to one show per artist. 

There is a jury fee of $30. All sales will be handled by the artist with no commission to SLC Arts. Artists will be asked to provide their own installation materials and labels, and will be responsible for installing and taking down their artwork within the dates provided by SLC Arts.
