Call for Submissions
Deadline: none, continuous throughout the year
The Hicks Gallery has one exhibition space and provides some professional technical services for the selected projects. Ten exhibitions are programmed annually, most for three-week runs. Artists are responsible for transporting their work to and from the gallery and must ensure the work is ready for presentation (e.g.: framed; outfitted with hanging hardware, etc.)
Solicited and unsolicited exhibition proposals are assessed and recommended for program inclusion by the Mann Art Gallery and the Prince Albert Council for the Arts. The John V. Hicks Gallery typically programs 1 - 2 years in advance.
