Call for Art
Here For You
Deadline: March 31, 2026
Exhibition Dates: May 9 – June 30, 2026

A group exhibition presented by Cornell Cooperative Extension of Columbia and Greene Counties + CREATE Council on the Arts.

CREATE Council invites artists of all disciplines residing in Columbia or Greene County to submit work for an upcoming group exhibition exploring the themes of care and human connection.

What does it mean to care for another person — or to be cared for? Who do we turn to, and who turns to us? This exhibition seeks work that reflects on the relationships, gestures, rituals, and moments that bind us to one another: the quiet acts of tending, the weight of responsibility, the spaces we create and belong to.

We especially encourage submissions from artists whose own experiences with caregiving inform their practice.

Artists are encouraged to submit work in any medium that can hang on a wall.
