SHIVERS invites curators, artists, artist collectives, filmmakers, designers, and performers to apply to exhibit in 2026. We welcome all mediums.

Selected exhibitions will run for approximately three weeks between July and November 2026.

The open call closes midnight (AEST), 15 March 2026.

You may apply with either:

• an exhibition concept, or

• a proposal that showcases your individual practice.

While we accept solo proposals, we are more likely to recommend that individual artists exhibit with at least one other artist and/or work with a curator.

There is no fee to apply or exhibit.
Selected artists and curators will receive a small artist fee.

If selected, we ask that you attend the gallery at least one day per week during your exhibition.

Please review About the Space & FAQs before submitting. Artists are also invited to consider the street-facing window space in their proposals.

This project is supported by Arts Merri-bek through the 2024–2025 Flourish Arts Grant Program.
