We’re so excited to invite you to Chromatic Spectrum, a new group exhibition by the artists of Outsider Collective.
This show explores color, portraiture, and identity through deeply personal, joyful, bold, and expressive work. Every piece reflects a unique voice and perspective, and together they create something vibrant and powerful.
Join us for the opening reception:

📢🌈✨🫟🎨🖌️ Calling all artists and art makers!📢🌈✨🫟🎨🖌️

The Outsider Zine Fest is a celebration of small works by local artists, makers, storytellers, poets, organizers, collectives... and anyone who's made something they'd like to share!

This is a completely free event with no vending fees! Inspired by Providence's beloved Q***r & Trans Zine Fest, we hope to create a space for makers who might not typically have access to book, zine or fine arts spaces.

Our idea of "zine" is very broad - This may be small publications, artist books and printed matter, as well as drawings, paintings, posters, ceramics, small sculptures, textiles....You name it!

✨✨ Call deadline: June 22, 2026✨✨

🎨🖌️ Market Date: September 25, 2026🖌️🎨
