Black Lives Matter New Brunswick (BLMNB) and the New Brunswick College of Craft and Design (NBCCD) are teaming up to launch a new permanent collection for the BLM offices based in Saint John. Together, we invite Black visual artists who are post-secondary students or alumni from across the province to submit works on the theme of Resistance – Affirmation – Knowledge. Pieces selected from this call will form the new permanent collection of the Black Lives Matter New Brunswick organization.

Inspired spaces fuel inspired action. When surrounded by works of art made by, for, and with your community, the impact can be transformative. By shifting blank walls into galleries that reflect shared experiences and shared passions, folks who enter this space feel welcomed, engaged, challenged and energized. This is the aim of the project: to honour the work that is done, the people who do it, and the change it makes for our collective past, present, and future. Share your vision of “Resistance – Affirmation – Knowledge” for an exhibition that will tour the province before its final long-term display at the Black Lives Matter New Brunswick office in Saint John.

Those interested must submit their work by January 23, 2023. Selected works must be packaged safely for shipping and delivered by February 1, 2023. Any specialty hardware or stands required for installation must be shipped to NBCCD – Fredericton campus or BLM New Brunswick – Saint John office as well.
