Open Wall with BMoCA

About This Event

BMoCA presents Open Wall 2026, a self-curated community art exhibition and sale, on Friday, March 13, 2026, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art, 1750 13th Street, Boulder, CO 80302.

Open Wall invites artists of all mediums and experience levels to share their work in a one-night-only exhibition and sale. Participating artists install their pieces in the museum space earlier in the day, then engage with the public during a lively evening event featuring light refreshments and a cash bar. Admission for artists to participate is free, and art patrons are invited to enter on a “Pay from Your Heart” basis—choose your admission fee from one penny up to any amount.

Open Wall is a great opportunity to discover and support local art, meet creators across disciplines, and purchase original work directly from Boulder’s creative community. Proceeds benefit BMoCA’s education and exhibition programming.
