For the month of September, The 567 Center is organizing a group exhibit titled “Nothing Concrete.” The theme of this exhibit will revolve around recent works (within 5 years) that feature abstract, abstracted, or non-objective artwork. We are specifically looking for 2D works, though are open to mixed media and sculptural submissions if deemed appropriate.

There are a limited number of slots. Those who are accepted into the show will receive a confirmation email by mid-August. We are accepting 4 to 6 pieces per artist and can accommodate for most work; size and time permitting. The displayed works MUST be made available for purchase, with The 567 receiving a 35% commission for any works sold during the run of the exhibition.

Artwork Submission Details:

All works MUST be available through the entire run of the show. The Gallery Curator has the final say on all works that enter the exhibit. There is the possibility that not all works submitted will be displayed.

All work must arrive at the gallery ready to display without any extra assistance. For example, works that hang on the wall should already have wire or a saw-tooth hanger attached, and works that need a stand to display should arrive with their stand. If a piece is not display-ready, it will be at the discretion of the Curator to include/remove from the show.

Artists will be required to sign an exhibition agreement and provide a complete and detailed inventory list as well as any specific instructions for display. Inventory lists must include, but are not limited to: Title of Work, Artist Name, Medium, Size and Price.

  • Deadline for Entries: Sunday, August 9, 2026
