Herbstlichtfest 2026 – Aufruf an Künstler

The Autumn Lights Festival, taking place October 15‑17, 2026, is a fundraiser organized by the Friends of the Gardens at Lake Merritt (FGLM) to support the Gardens at Lake Merritt, a seven‑acre public garden in Oakland, California. The festival showcases a range of site‑specific installations and artistic interventions throughout the gardens. Artists are invited to apply to exhibit their work as part of the 2026 program. Submissions are accepted via an online Google Form that will be available in early March, with a final deadline of September 15, 2026. Selected artists will receive exhibition space during the three‑day festival, inclusion in the festival program, and public exposure to a diverse audience. No application fee is required. The call is open to visual artists, with no explicit restrictions on age, nationality, or residency. The event is part of an annual series, making this a recurring opportunity for artists interested in site‑specific, outdoor installations.
