Calling all MA and MFA students at a California university!

We are pleased to announce the Fresno State California Call for Art, a juried group exhibition open to all Master of Arts (MA) and Master of Fine Arts (MFA) students currently studying at a California university.

Organized by graduate students and faculty at California State University, Fresno, this exhibition aims to create a platform for emerging artists across California to share their work, experiment, and engage in dialogue across institutions.

The exhibition will be held at M Street Graduate Art Studios and Gallery in Fresno, California, from October 1–24, 2026, with an opening reception on October 1 from 5:00–8:00 p.m.

Submissions are open now through September 11, 2026. We welcome work across a wide range of disciplines and media. Full eligibility requirements, submission guidelines, and accepted media are available on our submission form: https://forms.gle/vFRJS4jXRGu59xJ97

The exhibition will be juried by Fresno State graduates and faculty. Awards donated by BLICK Art Materials for Best of Show and Honorable Mentions will be announced at the opening reception.

As this is our first statewide call for art, we are excited to bring together graduate artists from universities throughout California and create new connections between programs and artistic communities.

We sincerely hope you will consider participating. Faculty and department chairs, we would greatly appreciate your help in sharing this opportunity with MA and MFA students in your programs.
