Kinfolk Projects

Kinfolk House is a collaborative project space that inhabits a 100-year-old historic home, where community and art converge in the predominantly Black and Latina/e/o neighborhood of Polytechnic in Fort Worth, Texas.

Each year we host three projects, or exhibitions, onsite at Kinfolk House. Each project brings together three artists: one local, one Texas-based artist working outside of North Texas, and one artist working outside of the state. Occasionally we have the opportunity to partner with another organization to host a satellite exhibition. Learn more about our upcoming, current, and past projects below.

Kinfolk House projects are supported in part by a grant from The Arts Fund at North Texas Community Foundation.

Now Open: 2026 Call for Proposals

Kinfolk House is now accepting proposals from North Texas artists and cultural workers for our 2026 and Spring 2027 project calendar. Three artists from North Texas will be selected to anchor upcoming projects at Kinfolk House, with each project including one regional and one national artist collaborator.

Selected artists will receive a $1,000 stipend, support for transportation and lodging for opening weekend, and support to develop a public program, with program supplies covered.

North Texas is defined as Tarrant, Dallas, Denton, Wise, Parker, Hood, Johnson, and Ellis counties. Artists from all disciplines are encouraged to apply.

Submission Deadline: Friday, December 19 at 11:59 p.m.
