CALL TO ARTISTS: Lineages: Generations of Creative Resilience in the District, Washington Project for the Arts (WPA), Washington, DC
DEADLINE: Tuesday, August 5, 2025, 11:59 p.m., EDT
BUDGET: The budget for each project is $10K—which includes honoraria of $3K each for two lead artists with remaining funds allocated to materials, documentation, and fees for additional discussants and collaborators (to be allocated in dialogue with WPA’s program staff). WPA provides installation support outside of the project budget.
The wisdom and insight artists bring from various positions of lived experience is crucial for navigating the challenges of our present moment with collective strength and care for one another.
Our 2025-2026 Open Call “Lineages: Generations of Creative Resilience in the District” invites proposals for projects that center intergenerational collaboration among DC-area artists. Conceived in concert with WPA’s 50th Anniversary and the forthcoming launch of our digital archive, this prompt reflects on the potential of intergenerational community-building among artists in the District as a way to carry forward vulnerable histories and imagine resilient creative futures.
WPA invites artist-duos to propose a project, involving other DC-area participants, to be presented in WPA’s Project Space in Dupont Circle (appx. 600 square feet, raw space, storefront opening in Fall 2025) for durations of at least 10 weeks, accompanied by two (2) public programs that will take place offsite.
Recognizing that concepts of generational age difference can vary between different communities and groups, artists are invited to interpret the term “intergenerational” however they find most suitable to their project.
All projects will have a duration of at least 10 weeks, not including breaks for holidays. Exact dates will be coordinated in dialogue with WPA staff within the following schedule:
Project #1: November 2025–February 2026
Project #2: March–June 2026

CALL TO ARTISTS: Lineages: Generations of Creative Resilience in the District, Washington Project for the Arts, Washington, DC
INFO SESSION: Thursday, July 17, 2025, 5:30 – 6:30 p.m., EDT
DEADLINE: Tuesday, August 5, 2025, 11:59 p.m., EDT
PRESENTATIONS: November 2025 – February 2026 and March 2026 – June 2026
Our 2025-2026 Open Call “Lineages: Generations of Creative Resilience in the District” invites proposals for projects that center intergenerational collaboration among DC-area artists. Conceived in concert with WPA’s 50th Anniversary and the forthcoming launch of our digital archive, this prompt reflects on the potential of intergenerational community-building among artists in the District as a way to carry forward vulnerable histories and imagine resilient creative futures.
WPA invites artist-duos to propose a project, involving other DC-area participants, to be presented in WPA’s Project Space in Dupont Circle (appx. 600 square feet, raw space, storefront opening in Fall 2025) for durations of at least 10 weeks, accompanied by two (2) public programs that will take place offsite.
Recognizing that concepts of generational age difference can vary between different communities and groups, artists are invited to interpret the term “intergenerational” however they find most suitable to their project.
