Locust Projects invites local, national, and international artists to apply for the opportunity to access the space and resources to create ambitious, large-scale new work in the 2,500 sq ft Main Gallery in Miami, USA.
Locust Projects is committed to supporting the creation and presentation of ambitious-scaled experimental new work. Existing work is not accepted for Open Calls. Proposals for new, installation-based work that has never been presented before should specifically be designed for the Main Gallery.
Locust Projects presents visual artists working in any medium and any stage in their career as long as the work they propose for Locust Projects demonstrably pushes their practice in new directions as part of our mission to invite risk-taking and experimentation. Collectives and artist collaborations are encouraged to apply.
Locust Projects provides:
- 10,000 USD Project Budget (may include but is not limited to: production/fabrication, equipment rental, materials, professional/technical support, installation/construction labour, assistants, shipping, de-installation)
- 5,000 USD Artist Fee (used at their discretion)

- 600 USD max towards roundtrip flights and ground transport available to artists that live 150 miles away from Miami (above and beyond travel expenses shall be applied to production budget)
