City of Kingston Calls for New York Artist

There is no question that we have a lot of amazing artists in the Hudson Valley. Painters, Sculptors, Mixed media, and more. Very often, groups do a call for artists for a special show, and that is the case with the City Hall Exhibition of Kingston.

City of Kingston Looking For Local Artists

A call for artwork has been circulating for this special exhibit, which will be at the City Hall in Kingston with the theme 250 Years of American Voices, Stories, and Histories. If you know artists, be sure to spread the word. This call for artists is only open until October 3rd, 2025.

Mayor Steve Noble is pleased to share that the City of Kingston's Department of Arts and Cultural Affairs is on the hunt for artwork which will be on display at City Hall from December 6th, 2025, through September 25th, 2026. The gallery space is on the ground floor of City Hall. The goal of the exhibit is to bring together the country's 250-year cultural history. The hope is that the exhibit will bring it all to life through art.
