How it works
Step 01 — Show us your work

Upload photos of your work — the pieces that represent your practice. You pick what we see. We read your medium and theme from the images.

Step 02 — Tell us what you want

One sentence. What you make, what you're looking for. "Large-scale acrylic paintings, surrealist figurative — interested in group shows, midwest or NYC."

Step 03 — We find the calls

Departist matches your medium and theme against every live open call. You see only the ones that actually fit.

Step 04 — One decision

We build the application. Fill every field. Format your images. Write the statement. When it's ready: pay the fee and submit. That's your only move.


Fit Score

Every open call gets a Fit Score. Not "will you get in" — we can't know that and we won't pretend to. What we can tell you: does this call actually match what you make? Two signals. That's it.

No career stage. No gatekeeping. No opinion on whether your work is good enough. Just: does this call want what you make?


Get early access

Departist is in private beta. Join the waitlist and we'll show you exactly which of those 1,669 open calls match your practice — before you do anything else. We're onboarding working artists first. People who actually submit to things and are willing to tell us when it sucks.

✓ You're on the list. We'll be in touch.

No spam. No newsletter. Just a note when it's ready.
