Collage Artists of America (CAA) is accepting submissions for “Freedom Reframed”, an in-person and virtual juried show, taking place in May 2026. CAA writes:
To reframe a situation means to change the way you think about it by looking at it from a different perspective and can refer to several concepts: personal trials and tribulations or liberation, world events, in a professional setting, or in one’s artistic expression. Work freely! The Juror is Shannon Currie Holmes, a curator, arts administrator, and creative director with over 20 years of experience in producing dozens of exhibitions, leading community arts programs, and developing strategic partnerships across Southern California.
There are cash awards totaling $1200. These awards will be given to artists in first ($500), second ($300), and third ($200). One artist will receive the Carolann Watterson Award ($100) and there will be four Honorary Mentions ($25 each).
