OPEN CALL for curators // No Longer Empty New York: Deadline August 8th

The No Longer Empty Curatorial Lab (NLE Lab) is a professional development program (12 weeks) giving curators an opportunity to build upon their existing knowledge and gain experience and support in developing, staging and evaluating a site-responsive exhibition. This program, expanding upon No Longer Empty’s mission, offers curators a new platform for debate, exploration, and experimentation in curatorial practices. The NLE Lab reinforces the role of the curator and encourages new interdisciplinary projects with special emphasis on site-specific practice and community engagement.

No Longer Empty’s supportive networks and the vast creative environments in New York City provide participants with the resources to deeply explore and develop new curatorial concepts. These 21st century curators will emerge with the tools to conduct community research and engagement, work adeptly with artists, be communicative and collaborative, and create a welcoming contemporary art exhibition for visitors in New York City.

The program is open to local and international emerging curators. The application deadline is August 8th.
