Call for Entry:

Wild Goose Creative proudly presents its annual call for entry for the upcoming Wild Gallery Exhibition: “Art & Soul,” highlighting Black artists and performers in August.

Being Black in America is a widely encompassing identity, including but not limited to ancestry, art, food, music, fashion, a shared experience of oppression and hurt from the past and present, as well as many other things that create the Black experience.

To highlight some of these important aspects of Black culture, “Art & Soul” seeks to provide a platform for up-and-coming Black artists and performers, while housing the exhibition and show in a space with local food and drinks to create a collective of creatives to celebrate the Black experience.
