Head Hi invites artists, designers, collectors, craftspeople of all levels, everyone and anyone to submit a lamp for the Head Hi Lamp Show 2024. Now in its fifth year, this tradition which began in 2019, is an exhibition that celebrates the joy of light with a special presentation of unique lamps selected through an international open call encouraging collective participation and experimentation with light, design, and materials.
The Head Hi Lamp Show is an exhibition of lamps, lamps made by you. Head Hi encourages everyone to participate, all ages, professional designers, or not, to submit a lamp. It can be a lamp you created, personalized or just a funky lamp that you found. The selection of lamps chosen for the display embraces a diverse range of backgrounds, skill levels, price ranges, concepts, and materials.
Lamps will be on display during the 2024 New York Design Week in mid-May.
Submission Guidelines:
- People of all ages are welcome to submit one lamp per participant.
- The submission fee is $15. Submission does not guarantee participation. After you submit your lamp to the open call, it will be reviewed by the organizers. All accepted submissions will be notified by email.
- Organizers are looking for creativity, functionality, uniqueness, and funkiness, with a particular interest in “non-standard” materials and objects.
- Lamps can be any size up to a maximum of approximately 2 x 2 x 2 ft. Any lamp sizes larger than this will not be considered.
- All lamps must be listed for sale. If sold, the split is 50% (to the lamp maker) / 50% (to Head Hi).
- For any lamps that need to be shipped, Head Hi does not cover shipping costs (including customs or import fees) for delivery or returns.
