The Art Base supports Colorado-based artists at all stages of their practice, including emerging and established artists.  

Exhibitions at the Art Base include solo, group, and guest-curated opportunities for Colorado-based artists, with priority given to artists living within the Roaring Fork Valley and surrounding region. 

Artists selected by the Exhibitions Committee may be at any stage of their careers. The committee considers a wide range of media, approaches, and subject matter, and gives preference to proposals featuring recent or new work that has not previously been exhibited together in the Roaring Fork Valley. 

FAQs + Application Details for our 2027 Exhibitions

The 2027 application process for exhibiting at the Art Base, will open on January 8th.
Please come back to apply in the new year. 

Applicants may apply for a solo exhibition and may also choose to be considered for group and/or affiliate exhibitions.

• Applications must be submitted through CaFÉ. Applications submitted by email or in person will not be considered. 
• Proposals for bodies of work that have previously been exhibited together in the Roaring Fork Valley will not be considered. 
• Artists who have had a solo exhibition at The Art Base must observe a three-year waiting period before reapplying for another solo exhibition. This does not apply to group shows (3+ participants), nor do group shows disqualify an artist from applying for solo shows.  
• The application period will close on February 20. Applications will be reviewed by the Exhibitions Committee, with notifications sent in spring 2026. 
• Artists must live within an 85-mile radius of The Art Base to be eligible for exhibitions.
