The space is modest in size (4.5m x 3m - see photos below), making it well-suited to smaller-scale or more intimate work that suits our formerly domestic space. That said, we’re open to a wide range of possibilities and ideas. We particularly encourage proposals from those who are in the early stages of their artistic careers.
We will work with you to curate the show offering support with install, press, invigilation and documentation. While we do not have access to funding, all of this support is offered at no cost.
Applicants for this open call must be living and working in Glasgow, and be available on the 15th and 16th for install. We will be selecting one show through this open call but you are welcome to apply as a group.
**Please note: our space is up three flights of stairs and has only one bathroom, so unfortunately it is not fully accessible.**
*Deadline 31st of March 2026*
Submit below:
- Exhibition project proposal (max. 300 words) [a brief description on what you plan to exhibit, or how you plan to use the space]
- Examples of work/portfolio in PDF format (or a pdf of supporting material for your proposed idea, for example, an essay could be submitted for a book event) (max. 10 MB)
- A bit about yourself (this can be an artist statement, or just a few words about who you are and what you do)
