An Elevated Garden Exhibition

Description

We are seeking artists, sculptors, and boundary-pushers to contribute works for an outdoor garden exhibition—set within a curated, elevated gathering that brings together leaders, creatives, and patrons.

This is not a traditional art show. It is a living environment—an interplay of form, nature, and conversation.

We are looking for work that transforms a garden into an experience. Submissions may include:

  • Sculptural works (freestanding or integrated into landscape)
  • Tree-based or hanging installations

  • Trellis or architectural interventions

  • Light, sound, or interactive pieces

  • Experimental or unconventional outdoor works

We are especially drawn to pieces that:

  • Engage with the natural environment rather than sit apart from it
  • Play with scale, texture, shadow, and movement

  • Invite curiosity, interaction, or contemplation

  • Feel unexpected—outside the ordinary, but deeply intentional

The Setting

The exhibition will take place in a cultivated garden environment at Highland City Club in downtown Boulder during an intimate, high-caliber gathering. Attendees will move through the space as part of a larger social and intellectual experience—encountering works not as spectators, but as participants.

Why Participate

  • Showcase your work to a curated audience of collectors, patrons, and cultural leaders
  • Be part of an emerging platform that blends art, ideas, and environment

  • Experiment beyond the constraints of a traditional gallery
