Ode to Womanhood — SaveArtSpace Billboard Exhibition

SaveArtSpace is a non-profit that has placed artists' work on commercial billboard and transit advertising space since 2015, turning public ad space into open-air exhibitions across the city.

"Ode to Womanhood" is curated by Ceres (Diaja), an award-winning photographer. The theme celebrates womanhood in all its authenticity, with particular emphasis on counterculture perspectives that challenge societal expectations around aging, career, marriage, and motherhood.

The call is open to all mediums, including photography, and to artists of all ages and backgrounds. Selected works are displayed on billboard and bus shelter advertising space throughout New York City for at least one month starting August 7, 2026, with selection notifications going out after July 6, 2026.

Submission is $35 for one to three images and $10 for each additional image, structured as a tax-deductible donation supporting exhibition production. The deadline is June 22, 2026.
