New this year: We are prioritizing submissions from local artists and curators based in the Metro Vancouver area and Indigenous reserves/territories within or connected to this area. We are particularly interested in proposals exploring the communities, lands, relationships and/or other specific contexts of this region.

grunt gallery’s programming includes visual and media art exhibitions, installations, performances, events and projects, which are often accompanied by print or digital publications. A curatorial committee of 5 to 9 people consisting of curators, programming staff, board members and artists meets for 5 days every August to review submissions. You can expect to hear back from us in the fall. We are typically selecting projects to be presented 1 to 2 years in the future (for example, in August 2025 we are selecting projects to be presented mid-2026 through mid-2027).

We encourage applicants to review the past few years of programming by visiting grunt.ca or coming by the gallery to learn about how we have prioritized accessibility for artists, arts workers and audiences. Artists are invited to name any priorities they may have in developing an accessible practice. We do not require artists to be familiar with accessible practices, but we hope that you come with an interest to learn, explore, and develop with us when you consider showing at grunt. Visit grunt.ca/accessibility-statement to read our accessibility statement.
