Calling All Arizona Artists! Artlink and the Artlink Artist Council announce a call for artists to participate in the 13th Annual Art d’Core Gala exhibition on February 28, 2026.
The Gala is the signature event of Art Detour 38, and it returns with a PRISM theme that invites those who contribute to and support the arts – including artists, collectors, philanthropists and community partners – to come together in celebration of the massive growth of Arizona’s art community in recent years.
This creative spin on a traditional gala shines the spotlight on Arizona’s creative communities with an artist showcase produced by members of the Artlink Artist Council and invited artists selected through this call. Selected artists will collaborate to present work across visual, performing, fashion, and culinary arts in a 6,000-square-foot showcase on view through March 31, 2026. Chosen artists will receive a $500 honorarium, while one emerging artist will earn a $1,000 Artist Forward Fund (TAFF) grant to produce an original work. Submissions are open to Arizona residents working in any medium, with entries due by Wednesday, November 19, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. (AZ time).
