Penang Art District is bringing Kecik-Kecik back in 2027, continuing its mission to make Malaysian contemporary art more accessible to a wider audience. Building on previous editions, Kecik-Kecik aims to cultivate a culture of art appreciation and collecting while providing a platform for both emerging and established artists to share their work.
More than an affordable art showcase, Kecik-Kecik 2027 hopes to open up new ways for the public to experience contemporary art, with a programme that brings together visual art, performance, and public engagement.
In collaboration with Arteesan.io, participating artworks will come with a free NFT Certificate of Authenticity, supporting artwork provenance and ownership verification.
We are now calling for artists to be part of Kecik-Kecik 2027! Join us in celebrating Malaysian contemporary art, connecting with new audiences, and making art accessible to more people.
Submit your work and be part of Kecik-Kecik 2027!
Further details on submission guidelines, programme dates, and venue will be announced soon.
