SHARE YOUR ARTS OPPORTUNITIES

Are you looking to share arts opportunities with the Black Arts Community? We've recently developed a Black Artist Roster as a means to bring greater visibility and access to Black artists across the creative spectrum. 

​

To complement the Black Artist Roster, we have also developed a dedicated portal for organizations seeking Black artists. Within the portal individuals and organizations can share upcoming opportunities. Opportunities can include but are not limited to calls for artists and curators, residencies, grants, and funding opportunities. 

​

Completing the submission form allows ARTE NOIR to share your information with a range of artists. Our commitment is to share information on the opportunity you submit; we take no responsibility for additional vetting or contact. Artists will be responsible for contacting you directly to follow up, should they be interested in applying. 

​

This Black Artist Roster is maintained by ARTE NOIR staff and used as a tool for sharing local, national, and international opportunities for Black artists including calls for art or curators, educators, grants, public art projects, artist residencies, speaking opportunities, arts production, and more. To increase the vocal presence of Black artists in civic discourse, you may also request Black artists as guest speakers.

​

What are the benefits of sharing your opportunities with the Black Artist Roster? 

  • ARTE NOIR will communicate your opportunities directly to our Black Artist Roster via regular email communication. Where time is of the essence, we will do our best to alert artists promptly.

  • The opportunity submission form intends to eliminate as many barriers as possible for Black artists.

  • Artists on the roster reside in Washington State, are at least 15 years of age, and represent a broad spectrum of disciplines.

  • Shared opportunities may be local, national, and international.
