2026 Exhibit Season: Group Lead Application

Conditions of Application

  1. This application is for a Group Exhibition in The Gallery’s 2026 exhibition schedule.
  2. Artists who have not shown in The Gallery within the previous year (excluding February Salon, Juried Shows or large group shows) are eligible to apply. Priority is given to artists who demonstrate a connection to the Town of The Blue Mountains or Southern Georgian Bay Region.
  3. Artist groups should select a “Group Lead”, who is responsible for submitting this application and images of work. The Gallery will not accept submissions from any sources other than the Group Lead. 
  4. Only complete applications will be presented to the Arts & Culture Council (ACC) for review. This includes images of work, which the ACC will review when making decisions.
  5. Groups are encouraged to develop a central theme for their exhibition, as this can enhance their chances of being selected to exhibit. For instance, a group might propose a show focused exclusively on portrait paintings. In addition, if a group has previously shown in The Gallery, they should select a theme that is as distinct as possible from their last exhibition. 
  6. The ACC decisions are final. Space is limited and the ACC reserves the right to group artists and artist groups regardless of their original application.
  7. Personal information contained on this application is collected pursuant to the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (MFIPPA).
  8. By submitting this application, you agree to the Conditions of this Application and the Policies of Exhibition.
