Open Calls for Artists
The Dairy Arts Center’s Visual Arts Program invites artists to share bold ideas and new work through a variety of open calls throughout the year. Opportunities include gallery exhibitions, outdoor sculpture installations, and community-centered programs. Each year, the Dairy presents five to six exhibitions alongside rotating public art and vibrant events that connect artists with audiences in Boulder and beyond. Artists from Colorado and across the United States are encouraged to apply.
