At New Museum Los Gatos
4TH ANNUAL EXPERIMENTAL EXHIBITION
Boundaries
​
In partnership with New Museum Los Gatos (NUMU), we are proud to announce the 4th annual Experimental Exhibition, a juried show where artists from across Santa Clara County are invited to create a work of art exploring the concept of Boundaries. We invited emerging artists to ​examine the boundaries that exist in their world, be they self-imposed, societally, or politically created. ​
Boundaries will be on view at NUMU (106 E Main St, Los Gatos) from July 19 through October 6, 2024.
​
genARTS Silicon Valley's Experimental Exhibition program provides an exhibition opportunity for emerging artists from Santa Clara County. The goal of the project is to create accessible, entry-level opportunities for local artists and arts administrators to participate in a curated gallery exhibit, and to provide opportunities for networking and relationship-building between new/emerging artists and more established arts professionals.

Help Us Create Opportunities!
Your Name in the Museum!
Donors contributing the suggested donation of $20 will be mentioned in the experimental exhibition and invited to a private curator tour (with a free glass of wine!). All donors will receive an invitation to the opening night with free entrance. Supporters are mentioned in the Experimental Exhibition gallery. All donations are tax-deductible.
Your donation has impact!
By donating a small amount, you can help 60-70 local artists have the opportunity to exhibit their work at a professional museum, many of whom are emerging and have little to no exhibiting experience. Our fundraising goal is $4,000, and all donations directly support the professional services and operational cost to curate, install, administer, and promote the exhibition, as well as the exhibition’s programming including an artist opening reception and arts resources fair.

Why donate?
Silicon Valley artists face the challenging combination of high costs of living and a lack of sustainable income and funding sources. These challenges are pushing our creative force to leave the region, deeply affecting our economy. In response, genARTS Silicon Valley, which is entirely volunteer-run, focuses on creating a strong and creative arts community by offering otherwise inaccessible, capacity-building opportunities for artists at all career stages. We recognize and believe that a creative community elevates the quality of life of all.
This summer, Boundaries will be one of the largest museum group exhibitions of local artists in Silicon Valley. genARTS calls on art supporters throughout Santa Clara County to help realize this meaningful project.
Thank you to our sponsors!
