The Durham Art Guild Essentials

Call for Art! DAG Gallery at Golden Belt is now accepting proposals for solo/duo exhibitions until October 30. This is a members only opportunity. Learn more at the link in our bio. Not a Member? What are you doing?! Get your membership and get more opportunities! That’s also at the link in our bio ;)

Call for Art! Apply by October 28. For 72 years, The Guild’s Juried Exhibition has created space for local artists to be seen, heard, and celebrated. Rooted in a long-standing commitment to supporting artists, this annual tradition exists to reflect the creativity, perspectives, and lived experiences of our creative community. So, we invite you to boldly take up space in the gallery by submitting up to 3 pieces for our juror to review. Meet our Juror: Ellen Cassily is the founder of Ellen Cassily Architects and along with her husband Frank Konhaus of Cassilhaus. Ellen has participated in multiple public art projects, taught numerous design studios, sustainability seminars and summer design/build studios in the architecture department at NCSU over the last 30 years. We would be honored to have you join us for the ride, a 72nd time. Apply at the link in our bio.

Durham’s Largest exhibition is now open!!! See over 130 artists featured in this year’s DAG Member’s Showcase! With many new artists this year, this is our largest and most exciting show yet. Don’t forget to join us for the Third Friday Artists Reception on Friday, July 17 from 6PM-8PM to meet many of the participating artists! We can’t wait to see you.

You guys really showed up!! Over 350 of you!! Thank you to over 130 DAG Members for creating this beautiful exhibition, bringing your friends, family, and community to gather and celebrate the incredible art that makes Durham so cool. Our opening reception was filled with laughter, joy, art buying, and wine sipping, and we wouldn’t want it any other way. We hope to see you all at the next one 👋

Oh yeah, it’s happening. At the Durham Art Guild, we strive to create opportunity, access, and visibility to our artists. That’s why we’re making a change. Starting in the 2027 gallery exhibition season, we’re moving away from group proposals in the Truist Gallery, and offering calls for art that allows our Members more chances to show their art and have their stories told. The best part? Members will be able to vote for the prompts they want to be a part of. Vote now at the link in our bio by Aug. 31. But, there’s more. DAG Gallery at Golden Belt has always been limited to solo exhibitions. We’re now opening the opportunity for duo show proposals. Applications will open September 1. So now what? Stay notified and look out for more calls for art, proposals, and opportunities.

Join us for the opening reception this Friday from 6PM-9PM for Renzo Ortega’s “Fish Tank”, a solo exhibition presenting a metaphorical ecosystem and refuge that welcomes its audience to engage with political and expressionistic paintings. Acompáñenos este viernes, de 6:00 pm a 9:00 pm, en la inauguración de la exposición individual de Renzo Ortega «Fish Tank». Esta exposición presenta un ecosistema metafórico y refugio, invitando al público a interactuar con pinturas de carácter político y expresionista. DAG Golden Belt Gallery (800 Taylor St)

WATCH UNTIL THE END, YOUR SUPPORT IS NEEDED! This year has been rough, and we need our community’s help to support our artists and keep our culture alive through the arts. Consider joining The 78 and making a monthly contribution to the Durham Art Guild, and help us continue the legacy of creativity, freedom of expression, and supporting the artists who make our voices heard. More information can be found at the link in our bio. If you cannot make a contribution because, well, things are obviously hard right now, you can help by sharing this post and interacting with it. Visiting our galleries, buy art online, and tell your friends about our story.
