Surface Design Association
Selected artists will have their work published in the Fall 2026 issue of Surface Design Journal, including full-color images and artist statements. Seven award winners will receive an expanded three-page feature in the journal, recognizing excellence in conceptual and material approaches to the theme.
The call is open internationally to artists working with fiber and textile-based media. Each artist may submit up to three original artworks, with up to two images per artwork (one overall view and one detail). Works must be original and completed after January 1, 2024, and must not have been previously exhibited in an SDA exhibition.
Applications must be submitted online through the CaFÉ (Call for Entry) platform. Artists must upload image files of their work along with a short artist statement and artwork descriptions.
