So here are some "Call for Artists" opportunities that I have found. Please check the websites listed for validity, fees and details (I am not responsible for the validity of these opportunities so don't kill the messenger!). Note that they are copied from different sites, so the formatting is different for each.
I have tried to pick only ones with specific dates, but I also included some compelling ones without dates. Follow me for more to come and let me know if you are looking for something in particular.
Happy Art Making and Show Entering to all!
