Art Galleries

The 224 galleries exist to platform bold ideas, amplify diverse voices, and create space for work that sparks connection & conversation.

Rooted in community & access, these galleries bring people together through art that feels current, intentional, & real.

  • We welcome exhibition proposals from visual artists, artist collectives, curators, and community collaborators interested in sharing their work with the 224 community. Whether you are proposing a group exhibition, large-scale creative project, or solo exhibition, we encourage submissions from artists whose work aligns with our commitment to creativity, community, and access.

  • When reviewing proposals, we consider:

    • Artistic quality and clarity of vision

    • The overall strength and cohesiveness of the proposed exhibition

    • Suitability for one of our gallery spaces

    • Opportunities for community engagement, learning, and dialogue

    • Alignment with the values and mission of 224 EcoSpace

  • Proposals are reviewed on a rolling basis by the 224 team. Due to the volume of submissions we receive, it may take several months to receive a response. We appreciate your patience during the review process and will contact artists directly if we wish to move forward with a proposal. All exhibitions are subject to internal review and Program Director approval.

    Selected exhibitions include:

    • An opening reception with light refreshments

    • Promotion through 224's social media channels and newsletter

    • To support our continued efforts to serve as a space for visual artists in need of venues to display their work, 224 EcoSpace retains a 25% commission on all exhibition sales. Artists receive the remaining 75% of sales proceeds at the conclusion of their exhibition.

    • Artists selected for solo exhibitions will also be asked to participate in an artist talk, providing visitors with an opportunity to engage directly with the artist and their work.

The Collaboration Centre

The Collaboration Centre is our largest and most dynamic gallery, built for scale, energy, and impact. This space hosts community-driven exhibitions that push boundaries and invite people in. It’s where big ideas take shape and where art becomes a shared experience. The Collaboration Centre is a space for group exhibitions and large-scale creative projects that engage, educate, and inspire.

Small Gallery

Our smaller gallery offers a more intimate setting for focused, powerful work. We hold space in this gallery for solo exhibitions that highlight fresh perspectives and deeply engaging storytelling.
