Call for Entries: Surf Art Exhibition

Submissions closed, selections announced Friday, July 11

Calling all SoCal artists who ride waves or work in the surf scene: we're inviting submissions for Surf Art, a dual exhibition at the California Surf Museum (CSM) and Oceanside Museum of Art (OMA). This show dives deep into the creative energy born from surf culture—celebrating how the ocean inspires art and how that elusive feeling of “stoke” finds its way from the lineup onto the canvas. If you’ve ever chased that perfect wave, you know the vibe—we want to see how you capture it. This opportunity is not exclusive to Artist Alliance.

Elemental: Artist Alliance at Sparks Gallery

Exhibition On View: May 2–July 6, 2025

This exhibition is not strictly themed, but artists are encouraged to submit work that represents your interpretation of the title, Elemental, an exhibition to take place at Sparks Gallery in downtown San Diego. Submit abstract or figurative work that explores the vibrancy and vitality of the core elements—earth, air, fire, and water—that shape the world around us. Artwork will be juried and the exhibition layout designed solely by Sonya Sparks, gallery owner and curator.
