SUMMARY:Call For Art: Soul Clap–Sounds of the African Diaspora
DESCRIPTION:Gallery X invites artists of the African Diaspora–and those whose work celebrates its musical legacy–to submit to Soul Clap\, a juried multimedia exhibition honoring the sound\, rhythm\, and soul of Black music. The deadline to submit work for consideration is May 1\, 2026 at 11:59pm. \nFrom the drum circles of West Africa to the deep groove of Funk\, Soul\, Jazz\, Reggae\, Hip-Hop\, Calypso\, Afrobeat\, and House\, the music of the African Diaspora has shaped global sound and culture. Soul Clap explores this musical continuum through visual and sonic expression–art that vibrates with the rhythm of liberation\, resistance\, joy\, and community. \nWe are seeking works that interpret or are inspired by the music of the African Diaspora\, including but not limited to; Visual Arts\, Sound Works (original music and sound recordings)\, & Video Works (music videos\, performances\, & video art). \nThis is a juried exhibition\, artists wishing to participate must email their submission for consideration by Friday\, May 1\, 2026\, at 11:59PM (EST)\, there is a $20 submission fee\, (waiver available for financial hardship).\nArtists will be notified of the jurors decision by May 10.\nAccepted work must be delivered between May 13 and May 17. 
The exhibition runs from May 20 through June 20.
