Calling Guernsey's Creatives: Could This Be the Sign You've Been Waiting For?

Guernsey Arts is inviting local artists to express their interest in exhibiting at The Greenhouse Gallery at Candie Museum. Whether you've been exhibiting for years or you've simply been creating because you love it, this could be the perfect opportunity to share your work with a wider audience.

For many artists, exhibiting their work marks an exciting milestone. Whether it's your first exhibition or you're continuing to build an established portfolio, it's a chance to put your creativity in front of new audiences and be part of the island's thriving arts scene.

If you're reading this and someone comes to mind, perhaps they're the person who just needs a gentle nudge. Share this with them. You never know where it might lead.

 

 

'There is no idea too bold - we’re very keen to see how the space can be made more immersive.'

 

To find out more about the opportunity and what artists can gain from exhibiting at The Greenhouse Gallery, we spoke to local artist and Guernsey Arts Executive Louise Le Pelley.

What would you say to someone who's been thinking about exhibiting their work but is unsure about taking the next step?

This is your sign to go for it!

What do artists often gain from exhibiting at The Greenhouse Gallery, both creatively and personally? 

There’s something very special about seeing your work framed and on a gallery wall. From the artists and community groups we’ve supported, feedback always centres on our opportunities instilling a sense of confidence, pride and the momentum to build on establishing professionalism in artistic careers and future projects.

Is there anything else you'd like potential exhibitors to know before getting in touch?

There is no idea too bold - we’re very keen to see how the space can be made more immersive. This could include soundscapes, projection, interactive elements, educational outreach, etc. As part of our mandate, we believe in access to the arts for all and offer outreach workshops and talks with the artist as part of our programming. Consideration of this is key. 

What are you looking forward to most from this latest call for expressions of interest?
