Exhibit Your Art

Submitting an exhibition proposal at Centre[4]Arts is a straightforward process, designed to empower artists to reach for greater heights.

Learn how to submit proposals for your chance to have artwork featured in the Members’ Gallery. Follow the step-by-step guide below to ensure your submission meets all the requirements.

Centre[4]Arts is currently seeking dynamic and creative exhibitions for our 2026 Members’ Gallery programming. We invite innovative and explorative proposals from members at any stage in their artistic careers.

We support emerging artists across disciplines and encourage artistic experimentation — there are no limits on exhibition subject matter or materials used.

While artists are responsible for producing, curating and installing their own exhibitions, Centre[4]Arts can help with installation assistance such as basic tools, vinyl signage, and promotional materials both online and in print.

All types of artistic media are welcome; however, take caution with works sensitive to light or weather, as the Members’ Gallery has a large street-facing window.

Members can submit a maximum of five works at a time for consideration. All submissions are reviewed by Centre[4]Arts’ programming committee, who curate the gallery based on submissions received and may or may not include all submitted works.

Gallery space is available free of charge as a benefit of membership. Please note that Centre[4]Arts does not pay artist fees for exhibitions in the Members’ Gallery.

• You must have an active Centre[4]Arts membership in good standing.
• All submitted works must be original and presentation-ready.
• Centre[4]Arts staff are not eligible to submit proposals.

Upload your proposal package as a single PDF (max. 10 MB) along with any supporting materials via the Members’ Gallery proposal submission form. See what to include below.

We strongly encourage submissions from individuals who identify as Indigenous, Black, racialized, women, 2SLGBTQ+, persons with disabilities, and others who are underrepresented in the arts sector.

Accommodations are available throughout the submission process upon request. If you require support, contact us at programming@centre4arts.com. Selected artists will be notified via email.
