Youth Pride Art Shows submission deadline

Your work deserves to be shared, loud and proud. OUT Maine is working with the Center for Maine Contemporary Art (CMCA), Rock City Cafe in Rockland, and MCHT’s Erickson Fields Preserve in Rockport to share LGBTQIA2S+ and allied youth and young adults’ artwork in midcoast Maine during Pride Month (June)! Which means we’re looking for new submissions to feature!

For 2026, the theme for submitted works is Queer in Maine. Think about place and its relationship to identity. What does it mean to be queer in our beautiful state? All submitted materials have the chance to be displayed at any of the three locations above.

Please submit your art by May 22nd, 2026 to be considered.
