Amos Eno Gallery is accepting applications for membership from individual artists, artist duos, or small artist collectives.. Our nonprofit, artist-run cooperative gallery has been a fixture in the NY art scene since 1974 when it opened in Soho and has moved with changing arts neighborhoods over the years to land at our current space on the Lower East Side at 191 Henry St in New York City.
Amos Eno Gallery is open Thursday-Sunday from noon to 6 p.m.and is run by a small community of professional artists whose members are vetted through a rigorous reviewing process by their peers.
Artists working in all varieties of media, at all stages of their careers are encouraged to apply. Applications will be evaluated based on a developed body of work that demonstrates technical excellence, as well as a distinctive artistic voice and vision.
Submissions from artists who identify as being part of under-represented communities are particularly encouraged to apply.
Artists don't have to reside in NYC for consideration but must be U.S. based.
There is no fee to apply. Submissions will be reviewed on a rolling basis.
