Description

Here & Now
“Our present will become the past of others.” – Eavan Boland
This year’s Open Call invites artists to respond to the theme of Presence through work created in a foot-square (30 × 30 cm) format.
Part of this year’s Visual Arts Trail, Presence brings a playful sense of discovery, inviting audiences to notice how we shape and inhabit our surroundings & the traces we leave behind. Exhibition: 31 July-6 August 2026
One selected artist will receive a 2027 solo show.

Click here for more information and to apply.

Artist Payment Policy
We do have a fair payment policy. In the case of this exhibition there is the opportunity to be awarded a solo show in 2027 which has an appropriate fee
