ABOUT CHARLOTTE STREET
Charlotte Street centers Kansas City’s most forward-thinking visual artists, writers, and performers—acting as the primary incubator, provocateur, and connector for the region’s contemporary arts community, and its leading advocate on the national stage. Since 1997, Charlotte Street has distributed over $2.5 million in awards and grants to artists and their innovative projects, and connected individual artists to each other and to the greater Kansas City community. For more information about Charlotte Street, its awards, programs, and initiatives, visit www.charlottestreet.org.
Charlotte Street's Open Call is seeking projects that are ambitious, timely, push boundaries, and utilize Charlotte Street’s unique space, staff expertise, and resources. Artists, curators and cultural producers wishing to partner with Charlotte Street are invited to produce programming, including but not limited to:
- Visual art exhibitions
- Installations
- Original live performances (dance, theater, music, performance art, spoken word, etc.)
- Video screenings
- Literary readings/events
- Public workshops
- Collaborative projects
Proposals are evaluated by an external Programming Committee using Charlotte Street’s four core values: Risk-taking, Openness, Collaboration, and Excellence.
There are two Open Call forms—one for exhibition proposals and one for program/event proposals. This form is for program/event proposals.
Examples of past exhibitions that were accepted through Open Call can be found on our Flickr: Open Call Examples—Events/Programs.
Other active Charlotte Street calls, including the Open Call for exhibitions, can be found on Submittable: Charlotte Street Calls to Artists; information on all of Charlotte Street's calls to artists can be found on Charlotte Street's website: charlottestreet.org.
