More Information

True to the Mexic-Arte Museum's mission, the Changarrito is dedicated to the presentation and promotion of contemporary Mexican, Latina/o, and Latin American Art. Artists will have the opportunity to sell their art on the Changarrito cart right in front of the museum or an offsite location while keeping 100% of sales. Additionally, the museum always buys a work of art to acquire for its permanent collection. The time commitment would be four days over two weekends, Saturday and Sunday 12--3pm.

About Changarrito
Changarrito is an art vending cart, conceptualized by artist Maximo Gonzalez as an alternative to the official gallery selection presented by the Mexican cultural authorities. Faithful to their original, informal spirit, Changarritos exist throughout the world, evolving as forums for the sale of original artwork to the general public, presentation of public programs, special curatorial projects, individual and collective exhibitions.

To apply: Email your resume, artist statement, and 2--3 images of your work to the Curator of Exhibitions and Programs of Mexic-Arte Museum at exhibitions@mexic-artemuseum.org
