Vox Populi is now accepting submissions for our 2025 juried exhibition and fundraiser, Huddle, a $99 Exhibition, from now through September 28, 2025. We invite artists within a 90-mile radius of Philadelphia to donate one artwork measuring exactly 8” x 10” to be shown and sold at Vox Populi from November 7 through December 15, 2025. All artworks will be sold for $99, with all proceeds going directly to Vox Populi to support our ongoing programming and operations.
Huddle is an anti-auction and an act of solidarity. All works are the same size, priced equally, and displayed anonymously. Artist names will only be revealed after a work is sold, creating a democratic space for both artists and collectors to connect outside of typical hierarchies.
We welcome a wide range of media—including painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, printmaking, conceptual pieces, and more. Work must measure 8” x 10”, be unframed unless framing is integral to the piece, and be signed only on the back or underside (or left unsigned).
Each contributing artist will be featured on Vox Populi’s website and social media, receive a free drink ticket for the Preview Event on November 5th, and be part of a high-energy, community-driven exhibition that connects artists with new audiences and collectors.
Now in its fourth year, the $99 Exhibition directly fuels Vox Populi’s mission to support experimental work, provide platforms for underrepresented artists, and operate as a collectively run space for contemporary art. All funds raised go toward artist honorariums, programming costs, facilities upkeep, and First Friday events.
Submission is free, and selected artists will be notified by October 1, 2025. Works not sold during the exhibition will be available for pickup after December 13-15, 2025.
Please note: This is a donation-based exhibition. Vox Populi is unable to provide payment or cover shipping/transportation costs.
