Call for Art: HOME

LexHAB, an affordable housing organization, and LexArt, a community arts organization, announce an exciting
second biannual collaboration that links both missions: an art exhibition, titled ‘HOME’, from October 11
through November 2, 2025 at the Nye Gallery in Lexington, MA. The show is open to artists in New England
working in all media.
HOME is a juried exhibit that focuses on the essential role housing plays in our lives and the importance
of affordable housing. Whether it is a physical place or an idea, ‘home’ can mean something different at
each stage of life and varies by culture and geography. Housing as shelter is a universal human need that is
inaccessible for too many, locally and globally.
A shelter is a need, a house can be a haven, a nest can be empty, a home can be inhabitable: climate change,
income inequality, racism, violence, love, community, and family are just a few of the factors that impact our
concept of home and our ability to attain and maintain a home. We invite you to reflect on this theme and to
submit a work of art that shares your perspective on the notion of ‘home’.
