CALL FOR ART! DEADLINE 5/12 @ MIDNIGHT
The BIG BOLD PRIDE Show at ASK
The Arts Society of Kingston (ASK) invites LGBTQIA+ artists and allies to submit work for our upcoming BIG BOLD PRIDE SHOW, a vibrant celebration of pride, presence, and possibility.
This exhibition welcomes work across all mediums that reflects artists’ unique experience, vision, and truth. Whether your art explores queerness directly, touches on themes of love, advocacy, joy, resilience, or simply reflects who you are—we want to see it.
This is a juried show, curated by artists, Lindsey Wolkowicz (O+), Jacinta Bunnell, and Micah Fornari (D.R.A.W.). Taking place on June 5 – June 25, 2025, submissions are accepted until May 12, midnight.
Artists will be notified by email on May 21. The opening of the show is on Thursday June 5, 6:30 PM and will include light fare & refreshments. As part of Rondout Pride Night, there will be a Pride Stroll down Broadway and across the Port Ewen Bridge at 7:30 starting at ASK. Stores and shops will be open in the Rondout to celebrate.
