Call for Artists
April: Après Art: From Slopes to Streets
As the mountain closes and winter releases its grip, April brings a shift — in pace, in light, in identity. Après Art explores what happens in the “after”: after the season, after the momentum, after the long stretch of motion and cold.
This members’ exhibition invites artists to interpret après as a state of being — the exhale after intensity, the quiet after ritual, the soft unraveling of a chapter. It’s about transition: from movement to pause, from structure to looseness, from collective rhythm to something more reflective, raw, or unresolved.
Consider themes of change, release, memory, liminality, fatigue, celebration, emptiness, reconnection, or becoming. We’re seeking work that captures the emotional and atmospheric terrain between the slopes and the streets — and beyond the season itself. All mediums welcome.
