Exhibition Proposals

The Banana Shire Regional Art Gallery accepts exhibition proposals year round. We encourage exhibitions by established artists, emerging artists, and group exhibitions with a clear curatorial direction.

Successful proposals are assessed according to the following selection criteria:

  1. Connection to locally relevant themes
  2. Strength of exhibition concept
  3. Quality and originality of artwork

Exhibitions are generally scheduled for a period of six to eight weeks. The annual program may be schedualled up to two years in advance and bookings are subject to availibilty. We recommend contacting us in the initial stages of your planning to discuss your ideas further.

The gallery has two exhibition spaces:
Main Gallery: suitable for large solo exhibitions and group exhibitions
Palm Tree Room: suitable for small solo exhibitions, emerging artists, small group shows and works requiring hanging from the ceiling.
