Fairfield County Student Social Justice Art Showcase – Call for Submissions!

Stand Together Against Racism (S.T.A.R), in partnership with The Glass House and the Carriage Barn Arts Center, is hosting its third annual “Through Your Looking Glass” student art showcase. This event celebrates how art, design, and architecture can promote social justice, inclusion, equity, and diversity.

Students of all ages from Fairfield County, CT, including college students, are invited to submit art that reflects a social justice topic that’s important to them. (Check out the S.T.A.R website to see what other students have submitted.) We welcome all forms of art, such as paintings, drawings, photography, mixed media, sculpture, videos (including TikTok-style), or architectural designs.Art is due by November 9.

This showcase is not a competition—all student artwork will be displayed at the Carriage Barn Arts Center in New Canaan starting with an opening reception on Saturday, November 16. All artists, with their families and friends should plan to attend. The showcase will remain up for approximately two weeks.

Fill out the pre-registration form linked here and also in the QR code so we know you intend to submit! When your art is ready, you’ll complete a separate release form.

Sponsorship opportunities are available. Contact susanborst@susanborst.com for more information.
