Each year, 30-40 group and solo shows are awarded for the five galleries consisting of over 6,000 square feet of exhibition space.

Any artist(s) living in the United States. All styles and media are eligible. Note: Any artist who has been awarded a solo show at The Carnegie must wait three years to apply again for a solo show. You may however, apply for group and theme shows during that period.
