Received this from the Miami-Dade Public Library. Seems like a really good opportunity to get your work out in front of a lot of people. Highly recommend you take a look into this one.

Download a PDF of the  Proposal guidelines are here.
The Miami-Dade Public Library System is accepting proposals for exhibitions, performance art, and site-specific installations in all media. The deadline is 5 p.m. Wednesday, March 10, 2010 for exhibitions and performances to take place between January and December 2011.
The Library system’s exhibition program includes contemporary art, material culture, folk art, and art education (for example, exhibitions of student work organized by teachers or other educators), as well as exhibitions in the humanities about literary, historical, cultural, and interdisciplinary topics.
We welcome a diverse variety of proposals in all media. We are looking for proposals of high quality that demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the library environment as a public space. Adaptability and flexibility are great qualities for any artist, curator, or group exhibiting at the Library.
The Library also evaluates proposals with an eye for projects/exhibitions that
* get viewers to see things in new ways
* address themes that are relevant to a specific local community in an innovative way
* present traditional art forms that are rooted in a particular culture, place, or history
* experiment with new forms, and/or
* relate to language and literary themes, library collections, or the library as a site.
