Dear Tomorrow, is committed to fostering a creative community that reflects a wide range of experiences. We especially encourage applications from artists whose voices have historically been underrepresented in the arts.
The Program
Dear Tomorrow is a 117 year old home in Oceanside opening its walls to local artists for a seasonal exhibition & shop.
We’re calling local artists in painting, drawing, photography, textile art, ceramics, and material-driven work that lives on or against the wall.
Working on all medium that live on or against the wall.
This is a chance to place your work inside a shared home, seen daily by a rotating community of hundreds of visitors each month, and available for purchase through the Dear Tomorrow onlineshop.
Each piece lives in the house for the duration of the season, forming a collective installation that evolves as work is added and sold.
Timeline
Applications are open until the house feels complete. Once full, submissions will close for Season 1.
Selected works will remain on view through September 21st.
We encourage early applications, pieces are reviewed as they come in.
How it Works.
Selected works will be installed at Dear Tomorrow, & photographed for our online shop. All sales are handled through the Dear Tomorrow website. Visitors can purchase directly through the website while experiencing the house.
Artists receive 70% of each sale. Maximum weight: 50 lbs
(If your work exceeds this, email us, we may still be able to accommodate it)

We do our best to prioritize artists. Dear Tomorrow receives a 30% commission upon sale of the piece to cover taxes, transaction fees, and for the gallery space.
