How your Open Call Application works

How the Open Call System Works

Step 1: Submission Requirements

Each Open Call will have a number of specific requirements (which can vary from Call to Call). Some of the more common required items are:

  1. 1. Contact Information (Name and Email address)
  2. 2. Artist Profile (Artist Statement, Bio, CV)
  3. 3. Artwork (sample image files)

Step 2: Create an Account

Your Artist Account lets you store all of these pieces of information and image files centrally - allowing you to use them multiple times for different Open Calls (this hopefully saves you time and hassle).

Step 3: Apply to a Call

When you are applying to a given Open Call, you will need to meet each required item on the list before you can Submit your Application. You can get these required items (assuming that you've already created them), from your Artist Account by selecting the: 'To import your stored 'ABCD' into this application: Click Here' link.

Step 4: Option to Create Stored Image Database

Alternatively, you can create new versions of these required items. You can choose to keep these new versions by the replacing the 'stored versions' that are in your Artist Account by checking the box that says: Check to save this "ABCD" as your Stored "ABCD".

Step 5: Preview your application

Once you have satisfied all the requirements for the call, you will see a 'Preview my Application' button at the bottom of your application page. Clicking this will bring you to a preview page, which lets you double-check everything before submitting.

Step 6: Submit your application

If you choose to submit your application at this point, you will receive a confirmation email with further instructions.
