APPLY FOR A VIDEO OPEN CALL
What:
In light of the COVID-19 pandemic and recent shelter-in-place order in Austin, Texas we have decided to shift our exhibition and artist stipend budgets to fund an ongoing open call for video works. In doing so we will continue to fulfill our mission by exhibiting and supporting Austin artists during these strange times. Throughout the open call, the Co-Lab Board will be reviewing submissions from the safety of their homes and selecting works to host on our @colabprojectstx Instagram account and website. Featured artists will receive a $100 stipend and retain all ownership of their work.
We want to see what y’all have been working on, whether it’s experimenting with new visuals, performance, music videos, or revisiting a piece you never had the opportunity to exhibit. There are no restrictions on duration and we encourage any artist, even if you don’t have a background in video art, to send a submission. We hope everyone is staying safe and can’t wait to gather in-person to enjoy art again.

Artist must be an Austin resident
