Attention all artists! We are pleased to announce an open call for a curated group exhibition in Philadelphia to be held at the Paradigm Gallery Arts Building. If you are looking for an opportunity to showcase your talent, connect with other creatives, and display your art in person at a high-traffic location in the city's bustling art scene, this is the perfect chance. Our previous exhibition in this contemporary, rustic space that shines with natural light was a great success with sales and a packed house during the opening! We can’t wait for our community to come together once again.

Submissions are open to all mediums and styles, with a size limit of 30 inches on any side including the frame. We encourage artists from any and all backgrounds to apply. Don't miss out on this chance to be a part of a dynamic and diverse art exhibition in the historic Old City neighborhood of Philadelphia.

Magazine's channels, reaching our global audience of 260k+ readers and followers.
