The goal of our Curatorial Programme is to provide an opportunity for independent curators to present ideas, viewpoints and approaches for exhibitions that will continue to challenge and inform our public. We invite both professional curators as well as artists to submit proposals to the gallery. If you would like to discuss a theme or project before submission, please contact Amber Berson, Director, at amber@visualartscentre.ca
