公开征集：新锐艺术家影响力奖

Open Call: Impact Awards for Emerging Artists is an inaugural award program by the International Art Project, a 501(c)(3) foundation. The call invites visual artists who are currently enrolled in a BFA or MFA program, or who graduated within the past two years, to submit work for consideration. Applicants must be 18 years of age or older. There is no submission fee. An independent jury will select twenty finalists based on artistic merit alone; no subject requirement is imposed. The finalists will be exhibited together in Miami Beach during Miami Art Week, opening November 30, 2026. Each finalist receives a monetary award: the grand prize winner receives $3,500, while each of the other nineteen finalists receives $1,500. Accepted works will transfer to the International Art Project and are not returned, though artists retain copyright. The deadline for submission is Friday, October 2, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. The award offers a significant monetary prize and a high‑profile exhibition opportunity for emerging artists.
