CALL FOR EXHIBITION PROPOSALS

The Community Art Space at Anvil Centre is currently accepting group proposals for its 2019 exhibition schedule. The Community Art Space forges creative dialogue, brings attention to local art as well as creates new opportunities for artists in our community.  It is open to New Westminster emerging and established artists who reside or have a studio practice in the City and work in two dimensional media.
