Send us your ideas for collaborative exhibitions and public workshops!
Humber Galleries invites proposals from collaborators like you for programming in 2018/2019 at both our galleries: North Space and L Space (see space profiles here). We are interested in proposals from artists, collectives, curators, educators, neighbours, student groups, and cultural organizations. We particularly encourage proposals from people who are affiliated with Humber College, based in Etobicoke, and/or identify as emerging artists.
Applications will be reviewed by Humber Galleries staff. There is no fee for application. We offer standard CARFAC-RAAV fees (calculator available here).
We strongly encourage applicants to read our mandate; consider the unique geographic, community, and physical profile of each gallery; and research the territory we are located on. Successful proposals will be grounded and generative.

If you are proposing a workshop or symposium, please give as much detail as to what material needs you would require, who would be involved, and who your intended audience may be. We thoroughly encourage projects which engage with the Humber and Etobicoke community.
