Supporting Local Artist

CF Campus features local artists, creating a unique and welcoming co-working and event space that values inclusion and equity for all.

Centrally located at Broadway and Rosemont, the CF Campus is home to over 20 local nonprofits and hosts thousands of visitors annually. A vibrant hub for the nonprofit community in Southern Arizona, CF Campus offers ample non-traditional space to display art reflecting the community we serve.

Campus Art

There are also smaller art pieces featured throughout CF Campus by local artists that are switched out at least once per year. CFSA is proud to offer this opportunity to local artists at no cost and receives no commission on artists’ sales. Art pieces are available for purchase by appointment or at your next Campus meeting or event. Artist include:

Artwork Display Guidelines

In addition to physical viewing and sales opportunities, selected artists will be highlighted during the year through digital storytelling and promotion. Submissions are free, and artists retain 100% of sales. 

Artwork that aligns with the following guidelines can be submitted. CFSA staff will determine if an artwork is ineligible for display prior to Committee review.

  • Artwork must be ready to install on a wall, including hanging wire. Works should not exceed 6 feet in any single direction and 6” from the wall.
  • We also welcome submissions of smaller, three-dimensional art pieces (sculpture, glasswork, ceramics, jewelry, etc.). Maximum dimensions are 20h” x 5d” x 15w”.
  • Artists may submit up to 4 pieces of art. Re-applicants may choose to submit the same pieces currently displayed, or new pieces for consideration. Collections are appreciated.
  • If selected, artists must be willing to deliver and pick up their art. Selected pieces will remain installed at the CF Campus for the annual exhibition until March 2026. Pickup dates will be scheduled early that year.
  • If a work is sold, we ask that the artist replace it with a piece deemed appropriate by staff or Art Committee.
  • Only original works by residents of Southern Arizona, south of the Gila River, will be considered.
  • No portrayals of nudity, violence, gore, or overt political statements, please.
Selection Criteria

We invite submissions that consider your interpretation of the history, beauty, diverse cultures, unique environment, and challenges that face the Southwest region. The following criteria will be considered in evaluating all submissions:

Artistic Merit:

  • Artwork communicates unique perspective(s), creativity, and/or innovation
  • Artwork demonstrates a combination of aesthetics, technical skill, and delivery which is engaging emotionally, intellectually, or spiritually
  • Artist has an authentic relationship or connection to the content or community involved in the work

Appropriateness for the site:

  • Scale – accessibility for installation/public viewing
  • Safety – the artwork will not a) pose a public safety hazard or b) create a hostile work environment for employees
  • Audience – suitability for all ages
Selection Process

A selection committee made up of a diverse group of community volunteers and CF Campus tenants will be responsible for reviewing submissions and selecting work. Final selections will be based on the criteria listed above, as well as availability of display locations on the CF Campus.
