\nTHE SOCRATES ANNUAL EXHIBITION
\nThe Socrates Annual is the culminating exhibition of the Park’s Artist Fellowship program. Each year fifteen artists are selected through a competitive, open-call application process and awarded the funding, space, and technical & administrative support needed to realize ambitious public art projects. The Socrates Annual exhibition does not adhere to an overarching theme, rather it showcases a diversity of processes, material approaches, and subjects that comprise the most compelling public art practices today.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":7108,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"event-category":[],"class_list":["post-7107","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/socratessculpturepark-2026.kudos.nyc\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/7107","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/socratessculpturepark-2026.kudos.nyc\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/socratessculpturepark-2026.kudos.nyc\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/socratessculpturepark-2026.kudos.nyc\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7108"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/socratessculpturepark-2026.kudos.nyc\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7107"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"event-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/socratessculpturepark-2026.kudos.nyc\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-category?post=7107"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
