The Medina Triennial is a new contemporary art triennial—rooted in place, shaped by community, resonant with global ideas, and free for all.
As the first initiative of its kind in the region, the inaugural Medina Triennial will bring together 35 artists and collectives from across the globe from June 6 to September 7, 2026, to realize a town-wide exhibition and public programs that are both expansive in scale and grounded in the local context.
Join the Medina Triennial for the launch of public programming at The Hub, the first in a series of weekend “Sessions” running through next spring. This newly designed gathering space in Medina’s historic district will host weekend artist talks, screenings, workshops, and conversations leading up to the Triennial opening in June 2026.
