Counterpublic Triennial Coyote Time St. Louis, Missouri, US 12 September — 12 December 2026

Collectively curated by Jordan Carter, Raphael Fonseca, Stefanie Hessler, Nora N. Khan, and Wanda Nanibush.

The first Counterpublic Triennial in 2019 emerged as a grassroots movement, activating barbershops, bakeries, parks, and other community spaces across St. Louis. This third edition continues this approach, drawing on conversations with over 1,400 individuals and more than 700 pieces of community feedback.

“Coyote Time embodies the current moment of apprehension but attempts to envision a shared near future with both boldness and hope. Each of our key sites for Counterpublic 2026 has endured a series of crises, including fires, storms, and governmental pressures. The works by these fifty incredible artists converse with the urgencies of the moment and propose new ways of thinking,” said Executive and Artistic Director James McAnally. “It’s an honor to present the third edition of Counterpublic and celebrate St. Louis’s forward-thinking arts and culture community.”
