The Friends of the Jamaica Plain Branch Library are now accepting exhibition proposals from New England artists for the 2027 season.

Six two-month exhibitions run January through December 2027 — six shows in drawing, mixed media and collage, painting, photography, and printmaking, submitting as a solo artist or small group. Each selected artist gets a two-month run in the branch’s lower-level gallery and an opening reception hosted by the Friends.

There is no fee to apply. Artists who have applied before and were not selected are encouraged to apply again; artists who have exhibited with us are eligible two years after their show closed.

Proposals are due by 5:00 PM on Wednesday, October 7, 2026. Full guidelines, the 2027 schedule, and the application form: friendsjplibrary.org/gallery-proposal
