Oak Cliff Cultural Center 2027 Exhibition Open Call
OC3 accepting applications from visual artists and curators for 2027 exhibitions. 8-10 shows annually with honorarium and podcast opportunity.
The Oak Cliff Cultural Center (OC3) is actively accepting applications for its 2027 exhibition schedule. This is an open call opportunity for visual artists, curators, and creative professionals interested in presenting solo or group exhibitions at this prominent Dallas cultural institution.
The center hosts approximately eight to 10 exhibitions per cycle, providing significant opportunities for diverse artistic voices and curatorial visions. Applicants from the DFW Metroplex are particularly encouraged to apply, though submissions from other regions are welcome.
Selected awardees will receive comprehensive support throughout the exhibition process. Each recipient works directly with the center's gallery programs coordinator to handle all aspects of the exhibition, including planning, installation, and marketing. Beyond the exhibition itself, awardees receive a monetary honorarium and the unique opportunity to participate in the OC3 Frequencies podcast, providing additional visibility and professional development.
This opportunity is ideal for emerging and established artists seeking exhibition space, as well as independent curators looking to develop curatorial projects. The direct collaboration with experienced gallery professionals ensures high-quality production and professional presentation of work.
