Submissions

The McClure Gallery is currently accepting submissions for its 2024-2025 exhibition program. Contemporary artists of all media and curators with an exhibition proposal are invited to apply. Artists who have shown in the gallery within the last five years or less should wait before submitting an exhibition proposal. In keeping with its mandate, the McClure Gallery prioritizes submissions from contemporary artists living in the province of Quebec, but does not exclude artists from other provinces or countries. The gallery may not be able to support certain new media artworks due to limited equipment. Please contact the gallery coordinator for more information at galeriemcclure@visualartscentre.ca
