Exhibits & Events

The Spotlight Showcase is our annual pulse-check on the new-contemporary landscape and an excuse to look beyond the familiar and find what’s next. Each year, Arch Enemy Arts hosts one open call inviting artists that have never shown with us before to submit their work for review. After sorting through a massive pool of submissions and a full week of deliberation, we chose a group of artists whose work stood out for its vision, craft, and fit with the AEA aesthetic.​ This year's lineup features 18 artists new to our gallery, based both locally and from across the globe, and working in a wide range of styles and mediums. The exhibition offers collectors a rare opportunity to support truly emerging talent at a pivotal moment in their careers.The 2026 Spotlight Showcase runs from 1/24/26 - 2/15/26 with a First Friday opening reception on 2/6/26 from 5 pm - 9 pm at the gallery. Our regular hours are weekends from 11 am - 5 pm and Wednesday - Friday from 10 am - 4 pm. Entry is always free and open to the public.
