The Bronx Museum of the Arts Teen Council is organizing an exhibition of teen art and is inviting teenage artists to submit artworks that engage with the theme of community. Everyone has a different perspective of what community is; what community means for someone can be completely different from what another person considers community.

The museum is hoping to share teens’ creative interpretations on this theme. Selected artworks will be shown at The Bronx Museum of the Arts from May to June 2023.

Submission Information & Requirements

  • New York City-based teens ages 13-19 are eligible to submit works.
  • Each person may submit up to 3 pieces.
  • Include an image of your artwork, title, medium, and dimensions.
  • Drawings, prints, photos, paintings, digital illustrations, mixed media, videos, and performance art are all welcome.
