About the magazine
The Center of Excellence for the Creative Arts (CECA) is a regional arts organization dedicated to fostering interdisciplinary creative practice and critical dialogue. Founded to support artists working at the intersections of visual art, literature, and performance, CECA provides residencies, exhibitions, and public programs that prioritize process over product and community over spectacle. Its ethos is rooted in the belief that rigorous, generous engagement with the arts can transform both individuals and the broader cultural landscape.
Submitting your work
Reading periodOpen now
Artists should approach CECA with a clear sense of their creative process and a willingness to engage in dialogue. Submissions via Submittable should include a concise artist statement, work samples that demonstrate a coherent practice, and a proposal that aligns with CECA's interdisciplinary and community-focused mission. Avoid overly polished or commercial presentations; authenticity and critical reflection are prioritized. Review guidelines carefully, as calls are often thematic (e.g., Zone 3) and require specific responses.
