Coconino Center for the Arts — FORE! 2026 Call for Artists

ECOME A MEMBER

FORE! returns to Coconino Center for the Arts in January 2026, and we’re inviting artists and community organizations to design sculptural art greens for this miniature golf installation and benefit supporting CCA exhibitions and programming.

Selected participants receive a $500 honorarium, turf, and a hole cup to create a safe, durable, and imaginative par 3–4 green (3–9 yards from tee to cup) that can be easily assembled in the gallery. Designs should be creative and functional.

Submission Guidelines:

• One-paragraph description of the proposed design, theme, dimensions, and materials (Note the size of the green must fit through a standard double doorway).

• Concept sketch of proposed design.

• Previous participants are welcome to submit a new design.

Proposals due October 15, 2025. Exhibition runs January 17 – February 14, 2026.

Shades of Route 66

Exhibition Dates: June 28 – September 27, 2025

Gallery Hours: Wed-Sat from 11-5PM, and by appointment

Shades of Route 66: Celebrating Diversity along Arizona’s Historic Route 66 in the State of Arizona explores, documents, and share stories of the underrepresented voices of people and their communities who contributed to the diverse cultural and socioeconomic landscape along Route 66 through Arizona. The final product of the project, a digitally accessible “StoryMap” using ArcGIS, provides a well-rounded and inclusive history of Route 66’s planning, construction, and development using anthropological and decolonial lenses. Shades of Route 66 was produced and sponsored by Cline Library at Northern Arizona University and funded by the Historic Route 66 Association of Arizona. Coconino Center for the Arts is honored to serve as a satellite venue for the dissemination of this project, and to share the diverse history of Route 66 during its Centennial celebrations.
