JEG provides support for District-based artists to exhibit their work in a juried, themed visual art exhibition through grant awards and the use of CAH’s Eye Street Gallery exhibition space.
The exhibition space is located in the lobby of 200 I Street, SE.
In a city defined (and divided) by its rivers, water functions not only as a natural force but also as a cultural one. This Request for Applications (RFA) seeks works for an exhibition that will bring together DC-resident artists whose work engages water and waterways as sites of stewardship, displacement, spiritual reflection, environmental injustice, recreation, adventure, and collective futures. CAH welcomes work that approaches water as subject, collaborator, force, or framework, expanding the conversation around how contemporary art can deepen public engagement with our shared ecosystem.
