It will be the third iteration of the exhibition, which celebrates the diversity and talent of artistic practices in the Tampa Bay area.

Participation is open to artists and art collectives in Hillsborough, Manatee, Pasco, Pinellas, and Sarasota counties. The exhibition will be presented across the five participating art institutions during the spring, summer and fall of 2024. The museums will co-publish a fully illustrated catalogue to accompany the exhibition.

Submissions can include work on paper, painting, sculpture, photography, video, performance, sound, research-based art, and site-specific installations, and can include examples of works and past projects. Only original works of art completed after December 2020 will be considered.
