Phoenix Art Museum announces call for submissions by Arizona-based artists for 2021 Sally and Richard Lehmann Emerging Artist Awards

Submission dates:  May 15 through July 15, 2021

Phoenix Art Museum has opened the annual call for submissions for the institution’s Sally and Richard Lehmann Emerging Artist Awards artist grants program . The newly branded and juried grant program provides recognition and financial support for Arizona-based artists.  The program is open to both professional and emerging artists.  The Lehmann Emerging Artist Awards foster the creation of contemporary art by encouraging emerging artists working in Arizona through grants and annual exhibitions as well as by providing additional programming opportunities for artist talks with the community and hosted at Phoenix Art Museum.

For the 2021 Lehmann Emerging Artist Awards open call, Phoenix Art Museum is partnering with Artlink, a Phoenix-based arts organization, which will host and help promote the call for artwork submissions.  The call is open from May 15 through July 15, 2021 to artists who wish to present their work for consideration. There is a submission fee of $10, with proceeds supporting education programs and exhibitions at Phoenix Art Museum. Up to three Lehmann Emerging Artist Awards recipients will be announced on September 30, 2021, with each receiving a $1,500 grant and the opportunity to participate in a group exhibition at Phoenix Art Museum in spring 2022.
