SaveArtSpace is proud to present Space to Feel, a public art exhibition on billboard ad space in Miami, FL, opening August 14, 2026, curated by Leah Guzman.
We are living in an age of emotional burnout. Society praises toughness, detachment, and constant productivity while dismissing sensitivity, rest, and emotional openness as weakness. But softness is not weakness, it is resistance. It is survival.
Space to Feel is a call for artists to explore the beauty and power of emotional honesty, tenderness, healing, and human connection. We welcome submissions in all mediums that embrace mental health, vulnerability, masculinity, femininity, identity, and emotional expression. This open call creates space for the quiet parts of ourselves that deserve to be celebrated without fear.
We invite artists of all ages and talents to submit their artwork between May 18 and June 29, 2026 in order to be considered for the exhibition. This is an opportunity to have your work placed on billboard ad space in Miami, FL.
The application fee is $35 for 1-3 images; each additional image carries a $10 fee. Fees support the production of the exhibition, including the purchase of bus shelter ad space. All fees paid to SaveArtSpace are 100% tax deductible donations.
Selected artists will be announced after July 13, 2026. Public art will be on view starting August 14, 2026 in Miami, FL, and will be on view for at least one month.
