Winkler Arts and Culture Centre is committed to supporting artists at all stages of their creative journey. This page shares current and upcoming opportunities to exhibit, teach, collaborate, and engage with our community.
Opportunities are open to local and regional artists working in a wide range of mediums. We encourage both emerging and established artists to apply.
We host a variety of exhibitions throughout the year, including solo and group shows, themed calls for art, community exhibitions, and student showcases. We have a second, Members’ Gallery, which features work by our members and is open to display 1-2 pieces per member for up to 3 months. Additionally, we organize Satellite Galleries around Winkler in publicly accessible areas.
More information on exhibiting in our Main Gallery can be found here!
