The Pursuit of Happiness
Nails in the Wall Gallery
About the Open Call
250 years ago, the United States of America’s Declaration of Independence stated that the 'pursuit of happiness' is an 'unalienable right'. This pursuit is, and always has been, challenged by circumstance. Artists are asked to explore: What overarching challenges to this pursuit have you observed in your country, the world or the planet? What does it mean to pursue? Why is happiness different for different people? What happiness have you seen? The gallery looks forward to seeing a wide variety of interpretations of this theme. Exhibit Dates: February 21 – May 17, 2026.
