CINC - Call for art submissions

Creative In Common (CINC) is excited to announce an open call for submissions for Golden Hour, the inaugural exhibition of the CINC Gallery in downtown South Orange.

This exhibition will feature original work by local artists displayed in a series of large street-facing windows along Sloan Street — publicly visible day and night and timed alongside the kickoff of the South Orange Downtown After Sundown summer concert season.

We’re inviting artists from South Orange, Maplewood, and surrounding New Jersey communities to submit work responding to themes of light, warmth, abundance, and communal life.

Please find the full call for submissions attached, which includes exhibition details, eligibility requirements, and submission guidelines (link to submission form is in the attached PDF).

Submission deadline: May 11, 2026. 

Questions can be directed to: gallery@creativeincommon.org
