CIR 2027

Opening Reception: TBD
Members Only Happy Hour from 4-6pm
Open to Public from 6-9pm

Ogden Contemporary Arts’ Curator in Residence (CIR) program invites a curator from outside Utah to conceive and realize an original group exhibition at OCA. Bringing together a mix of Utah-based and out-of-state artists, each exhibition builds a dialogue between Utah’s creative community and the broader national and international contemporary art landscape. The residency pairs a remote development phase with time on-site in Ogden, with community engagement at the heart of the project.

OCA supports each curator with an honorarium, a production budget, housing, travel support, and the full backing of its professional staff. Stay tuned for details on our 2027 Curator-in-Residence!
