Propose a Show
The Siskiyou Arts Museum reviews art show proposals throughout the year!
We are excited to hear from our creative community members about the shows they are interested in presenting at SAM. Exhibitions generally remain on display for two months and are scheduled to open on the second Saturday of each month. Proposals will be reviewed by our Head Curator, Lindsay Hanley, and then approved by our Board of Directors.
We accept proposals at any time. Our criteria will focus on technical skill, aesthetic qualities, historical, cultural, or educational significance, audience appeal, and alignment with our mission statement. We suggest choosing other artists with whom you’d like to collaborate, and who are interested in participating in a group show at SAM.
Artists are welcome to submit their proposals for the 2026 art show season via the link below; 2025 is filled. Proposals should include a title, concept, and artists involved. Please submit photos and additional documents via email (with your name and the title of your show proposal in the subject line) to Linsday Hanley at curatorsam@gmail.com.
Alternatively, you may mail a paper copy of your proposal form and supporting documents. Click here to download a pdf of the form, or pick one up at SAM’s front desk.
