New Works 2025

OffCenter Arts is excited to host the second round of our artist professional development and art creation program: New Works! In partnership with the City of Albuquerque Public Art department, New Works is designed to support underserved artists and connect the city with new artwork from local artists.

This 12-week professional development program provides artists with educational workshops, a peer-network of artists, plus materials and support to create new, original artwork. The New Works program is a unique and welcoming opportunity for artists seeking professional development support.

Currently on exhibition at FUSION, the artwork created for this program includes stained glass, painting, collage, mixed media, and photography. 70 pieces created by 22 participants and one program volunteer. This exhibition showcases what individuals can create when given the tools and support to cross boundaries and claim their own creative expression. 

Working in a variety of media, this diverse group of artists are united in their boundary-crossing experiences. Whether those boundaries are geographic borders, common social barriers such as housing status, or any of the many restrictive cultural boundaries placed on creative expression, these artists create work that expands their own and viewers' expectations. 

This exhibition can be viewed during public FUSION events or by appointment from May 14–June 22! To schedule a visit email FUSION.
