OCAD U Call For Art

We’re thrilled to partner with OCAD University for a special Call for Art! OCAD U is the largest and most comprehensive art, design and media university in Canada and an internationally renowned hub of creativity. With our shared passion for all things creative, we teamed up to give another opportunity for OCAD U students and recent alumni to showcase their art!

This Call for Art is open until April 30, 2021 and any OCAD U student or graduate of the Class of 2020 can submit their work for consideration. Once the Call closes, a panel of curators will select 12 pieces that will be featured on special-edition labels rolling out throughout the year. All artists selected will be paid and keep full ownership of their work.

How to Submit

Our art submission process is completely online and only takes a few minutes!

1. Visit our Call for Art page at collectiveartsbrewing.com/call-for-art/ and click “Get Started Now”
2. Click “Register Now” to create an account
3. Make sure to select “OCAD U Call for Art” from the dropdown menu
4. Upload your art!

What to Submit

We encourage artists to submit pieces they’ve already completed as we respect the time and effort it takes to create new artwork. We are looking to use our labels to highlight your creativity, so the content of what you submit is totally up to you!

Selection

The submissions will be reviewed by a panel of curators and the 12 selected artists will be notified by email. Once the art pieces are selected they will start rolling on labels this spring/summer.
