Job description

ArtDeadline.Com The Art World's Source for Income & Exhibition Opportunities Art Calls Collective Exhibition & Arts Festival in Princeton

International Deadline: January 1, 2027 โ€“ Point Pleasant Publishing proudly presents โ€˜Crowns of Princetonโ€™, an open-themed group exhibition of 10-12 artists at The Solley Theatre at the Paul Robeson Center for the Arts in beautiful Princeton, New Jersey. Princeton is an affluent city and home to the worldโ€™s leading academic institution, Princeton University.

The exhibition is open to all artists internationally working in any form of artistic practice, including performance and moving-image. This one-day exhibition will be promoted on EventBrite, ArtRabbit, LinkedIn, the New Jersey State Council on the Arts and will take place on Saturday, February 20th, 2027 from 11am-4pm.

Additionally, there will be a detailed and comprehensive published catalogue documenting this exhibition, available in both print and digital. The extensive exhibition catalogue will contain human-authored curatorial statements / essays, thorough professional photography, and internationally registered with an ISBN. Participating artists will be given a free PDF copy of the exhibition catalogue for โ€˜Crowns of Princetonโ€™. The catalogue will be available in both linen wrap hardcover and perfect bound paperback.

Venue: Located in Downtown and just one block from Princeton University, The Solley Theatre at the Paul Robeson Center for the Arts will host โ€˜Crowns of Princetonโ€™, a collective exhibition by Point Pleasant Publishing, on display February 20, 2027. โ€˜Crowns of Princetonโ€™ is focused on surveying the status of experimental art as opposed to a fixed, generalized theme. Due to the unconventional nature of the show being held in a theatre with large windows, spanning one day, and incorporating moving-image, performance, and 2-D / 3-D visual art, โ€˜Crowns of Princetonโ€™ is more similar to an arts festival rather than a standard exhibition.
