SUBMIT TO THE 2027

30x30x30 EXHIBITION

Opens April 2027 at Var Gallery, Milwaukee, WI​

​

Var Gallery's 30 x 30 x 30 Exhibition invites select 30 artists to make 30 pieces in 30 days in the month of January. Hosted in Milwaukee, WI, the show's goals are to stimulate an aggressive art-making marathon right away at the beginning of the year as well as provide gallery visitors the ability to collect small works from many artists. This is Var’s 12th year holding this exhibition, and overall interest for the showcase continues to grow for artists and gallery patrons. Last year’s submission count hit over 270 and has an estimated 1,000 visitors attending the opening reception, dwarfing the previous years' attendance—sales generated for artists for 2024’s exhibition totaling over $56K.
