Call To Artists – Winter 2025 Exhibition
What is the power of a word? What role does language play in building a society that values freedom of thought?
As a part of our Year of Free Speech, the National Liberty Museum (NLM) invites artists and creatives to explore these pivotal questions through their unique lenses. Opening February 7, 2025, the winter 2025 exhibition will showcase a curated selection of artwork that transforms viewers into active readers and interpreters, promoting curiosity and encouraging conversations across a diversity of perspectives.
Selected works should act as a means of communication through the incorporation of words and language, illuminating and engaging with the dual forces of expression and censorship, and asking viewers to reflect on the nature of free speech, its possibilities, and its limits. These works should celebrate the transformative power of words to connect and uplift civil discourse through interactive and reflective experiences.
NLM is looking for artwork in a range of media including, but not limited to: written word, installation, 2D, 3D, digital media, or performance. Accommodations can be made for multimedia works depending on scale and requirements. All work must be completed before the application deadline to be considered. Participating artists and artwork will be selected through this open call-to-artists and a jury selection committee of community partners.
