It's September. If you want an exhibition credit on your CV before the year ends, this is the moment to apply, because every show still open this year is a capacity based show that closes when it fills, not when the calendar says.

Here is everything currently open through Streeters Gallery and The Holy Art, in date order, with what each one is for.

London: November 6 to 8, 2026

The new London dates, added after the September show sold out ahead of its opening. Weekend group exhibition, Friday opening night, Saturday and Sunday open to the public.

Best for: artists based in the UK who can deliver in person, and anyone who wants a London exhibition credit with the strongest possible logistics. London is where the Streeters and Holy Art network started, and the opening night crowd reflects six years of collector relationships in the city.

Physical exhibition £120 for one work, £200 for two. Digital from £45. All mediums. No CV. Zero commission on sales.

New York, Tribeca: November 20 to 23, 2026

101 Reade St, Tribeca. Four days rather than three, because the New York audience earns the extra day. Opening night, then three public days in one of the most important art neighbourhoods in the world.

Best for: artists who want the credit that changes how galleries read a CV. "Exhibited in Tribeca, New York" travels. International artists can ship work or exhibit digitally, and the show pairs naturally with the Times Square big screen showcase for artists who want the wall and the screen in the same month.

Berlin: December 5 to 7, 2026

The first ever Streeters show in Berlin. Friday opening night, weekend public days. Venue details are confirmed to selected artists.

Best for: artists in Germany and across Europe, and anyone who understands what being in the first show in a new city means. When the story of a gallery in a city gets told, the first exhibition is the one that gets referenced. Berlin also has one of the highest densities of working artists in Europe, which makes the opening night crowd its own reason to be there.

Same pricing, same open format, all mediums, no experience needed.

Times Square: rolling dates through the year

Your artwork on a big screen in the middle of Manhattan. 40 spots per showcase, and every date so far has sold out, with new dates released after each one fills. No shipping, no travel, just a high resolution file.

Best for: artists anywhere in the world who want the most visible exhibition credit available and the content that comes with it.

London billboards, Kings Cross and Notting Hill: rolling dates

Unlike the shared Times Square screen, each London billboard slot gives one artist the entire screen for 30 seconds, around 21 plays a day from 6am to midnight, never split with another artist.

Best for: artists who want their work seen by the general public at scale, not only gallery audiences, in two of London's most recognisable locations.

The Holy Art: rolling open calls across nine cities

For international reach beyond the Streeters cities, The Holy Art runs rolling open calls across nine cities worldwide including London, New York, Tokyo, Milan, Athens, Barcelona, Amsterdam and Brighton. Free to submit, physical and digital formats, over 25,000 artists exhibited since 2020.

A realistic plan for the last four months

Apply now for London or New York, or both, since applying to multiple shows costs nothing. Add a digital spot in whichever city you cannot travel to. Book a Times Square or Kings Cross slot for public visibility. Apply for Berlin so you are in the first show. Open a studio on Mostra, the zero commission marketplace built by The Holy Art, so every person who discovers you at any of these has somewhere to buy.

Done by December, that is three cities, two screen formats and a permanent shopfront, all with zero commission at every step.
