Thank you so much for this info!!! Including organizations that are specifically looking for artists from marginalized communities is SO helpful. I'm working hard to start showing in local galleries and museums in North Carolina, and hoping to slowly grow to these larger institutions in different states. I'd love to know how small town artists can expand and land opportunities at such far away places. So far I've been making progress by networking, but I don't have a good strategy besides attending art gallery openings.

Attending art gallery openings is a perfect strategy. Keep doing that. There are a few interesting artists that I covered early on,.Here is one artist I particularly like a lot. I think you might enjoy her approach - https://shagunsingh.substack.com/p/from-couch-surfing-to-art-and-business
